Yakupov hasn't even touched NHL ice and now he's worth Weber, Subban and a third overall pick, and Tyler Myers?

That's a sweet deal.

News flash! B Sutter will be your next coach....and if he is you guys will make the playoffs next year. You heard it here first.

Dear god I hope not!

I would take Yakupov over any of them.

Say what you want but he's a great coach. Calgary is just a (frank)ed up organization.

Would #3 overall, #33 (2nd rounder) and Tinordi do it? Probably not

If the Oilers did move that pick, I think they might want something that can help now.

Do you really think Edmonton is a Brent Sutter type team? Aside from his connection to the Nuge.

I dont think any Oiler fan would like a Sutter as coach, just dont seem right to me.
Not saying hes bad, just not the right fit.

From what everyone says he is awesome with young players. I'm just speculating. Imagine if it happens and Feaster hires Renney....

Now if Lindy Ruff gets the axe, the Oliers would be dumb not to go for him.

Didn't Sutter coach Team Canada to Gold a few years back? If you give him the benefit of the doubt he might be better with young guys then old balls.... no homo

Yah that's probably true. But the Sutter hate would end quickly if he got u guys into the playoffs.

Isn't Brent all about players with size and grit just like that blow hard in Toronto.

Absured is a better word. Any GM that would make any of these trades on an unknown, unproven comodity, needs to lose their job. Every player mentioned would be either equal or above equal, without the 1st rounder thrown in. Keep dreaming!

Now, if you want to send us Taylor Hall, even up, for Jake Gardiner, then we may have a trading partner.

Hall for Gardiner????

Btw. Pete Ciarelli once upon a time traded an nhl player for 3 uknowns, looks like a dandy of a deal now doesn't it?

To a certain degree yes but, he likes developing young players. And for the record or for what it's worth he turned us down. Feaster didn't let him go.

OK DEAL.

Sutter sees what obviously has to be done.

Didn't they say he wanted the Flames to go in the direction of a rebuild or the opposite?

Funny how people can frame things to suit their interests...

Yakupov can either be known as 'consensus #1 pick, the next coming over Bure'

or...

'Unproven, injury prone, small Russian'
