oilers pick YakIMOv

they probably thought it was cute to have Yakupov and Yakimov playing together...

I have a large nose too. I feel it makes me look very distinguished

you know what they say about a large nose? easier to breath

who the hell is he?

He was ranked at 151 NA skaters which is 150 picks better than Bertuzzi that Detroit took. Bet the Wings board isn't firing anyone.

Too small to be an enforcer. Looks more like a "Little Ball Of Hate" type player.

Rinaldo's replacement in the 3rd round... super

really stupid pick up. He wont see the NHL, ever.

Dan Carcillo has had an NHL career, so anything's possible.

Shhhhh. Narrative: Idiot GM. Stupid franchise. Whiplash Effect. Love him at 41, hate him at 72.

Should start drafting guys from the UFC. They are badass.

Honestly, what do you know about the player? It's crazy how the criticism is flowing based on a team selecting a player that fans know little about, other then what they can read on a basic scouting report. Even for the best in the business of player talent evaluations, the draft is an absolute crap shoot. Especially in later rounds.

If you can't beat them, beat them up...


While stupid it shouldn't be surprising, they have a thing for these type of players, seen by them actually offering rosehill a nice contract.

need a stream

At this point the draft is pretty much on the scouts. Homer hasn't seen a ton of these players.

That's who I was hoping for instead of the Rinaldo from kelowna

maybe rinaldo is going to edmonton

Might want to see your urologist about that.

If the public relations job of the Chicago Cubs ever opens up, you should apply.
