That always works. Ask Bob.

"I want big contract or I leave for KHL"

"Well, goodbye then. Good luck actually getting paid over there."

"Was only joke. Please don't be mad".



At this point, do you think any team would take a shot at him? Knowing he can flake out and leave for the KHL at any time? I mean, I guess someone would, but they aren't going to give up the top D pair guy the Oil needs.




Well, Holmgren probably still has a phone in his office. So I guess it's possible.

My Oilers buddies have been noticeably quiet these days, Matty, they make a lot of noise from late June to the end of October and then everything subsides.

I think Dash knows a little something about loving the Oilers tanking, Matty. I mean He's done it six years in a row.

Craig MacTavish said Yakupov talk was distracting to #Oilers, accused @CraigCustance of manufacturing story,

Sounds like a serious communication breakdown between master communicator Eakins and Yakupov. Video: Steven Stamkos Goal on Devan Dubnyk (07:37/1st) - NHL VideoCenter

Jason Brough ‏@JasonPHT 18m
Whoops, wrong link. That one was Yakupov being careless with the puck. Here's his interview. PRACTICE RAW | Nail Yakupov Video - NHL VideoCenter - Edmonton Oilers

I guess Brian Lawton is on Edmonton radio suggesting the Oilers make a trade so that they can give ice time to Yakupov. Said that he traded Jussi Jokinen so Stamkos could get ice time.

About fucking time. I swear, since the first lockout, no arena has had more premature goal horn mess ups than Edmonton.

/The highlight of this Oilers season is going to be Joey Moss's birthday party.
