Yeah, I'm sure agents talk to teams all the time about their players. They wouldn't be good agents otherwise. Not sure about talking to the coach though.

The problem here is that Larionov made sure his opinions (not happy) and threats (trade him if you're unhappy) got to the media. My impression is that Larionov is telling the world that Yakupov wants out. It likely is no coincidence that this public meeting was set up after the Oilers said he was going nowhere.
