So it's like this:
For the third year in a row, the Oilers own the 1st overall draft pick.
Nail Yakupov is the clear top prospect. He might be a smaller right-winger, but he's a goal scorer who's compared to Pavel Bure. He's going to be a 40 per season goal guy. We're talking huge talent.
Options. The Oilers have options.
We could draft Yakupov and move Ales Hemsky.
We could move Yakupov's rights to get a top pairing defenseman.
We could just draft him and see what happens.
This is ridiculous.
