I'm guessing that the NHL isn't particularly thrilled that one of its higher profile players is so visible about his gambling.

Yeah, I know it's legal, but sports figures have been banned for less.

Yakupov is Russian, therefor, it would of been a mistake drafting him..

Well, the Leafs GM wanted to pass on the Russian guy, so that no longer applies.

Yeah, but why take Yakupov when you can get the best guy in the draft at 5th?

Yup, that's exactly how good PR works in Toronto. Build up the hype to mountainous proportions and watch everything work out perfectly.

You're right. "We took what was left over" would have been much better.

There are a million ways to say they are happy to take him without having to say he was #1 on their list. There's a different between stating the positives of a newly drafting player and just plain bullcrap.

WNBA is still a pure game - because nobody cares enough to rig it.
