I don't see Kassian have much success with those two. I was hoping to see him with at least one good playmaker.
I've been a big fan of Kassian since he was drafted and hated to see him leave the Canucks. I also think one of the biggest issues with Kassian in Vancouver was his linemates. Fans and management seemed to expect him to be a goal scorer and a grinder because of his size when, in reality, he was probably the third best passer on the team behind the Sedin's.
I think if he's got someone like Yakupov on his line that he can set up, then he will really succeed. He can and will fight anyone which gives Yak the protection to play a fairly wide open game and Kassian's speed was always very underrated. His size makes his speed very deceiving.
As much as I dislike the Oilers, I really hope Kassian turns things around and has success against everyone but Vancouver.
Excuse the badly broken neck and wrong handedness.
44...that number has been good for us.
Not as cursed as #15 though.44...that number has been good for us.

Beats 14.
#14 is doing pretty good at the moment.
Better than #4.
You probably have to be over 14 to get the joke.

Exactly. And Pouliot could use a punch in the face to motivate him a bit as well. Both of those guys are such floaters out there.To me this is as much a shot in the jaw to Teddy Purcell as rewarding Pakarinen.
