That's homerism and I don't even like Yakupov. But Yakupov's value is worth more than a second rounder. Not much more but probably a late first and and a middle of the road prospect.
Both are probably worth around the same. A third rounder.

I'd take Jankowski over the second rounder though because the pick is a year from now. I'll buy the time and take the prospect there.

I don't think I'd trade a third rounder for Yakupov (he has 6 goals this season and is horrendous defensively and he's played with McDavid and sucked so I doubt Gaudreau can do much for him either). Someone will trade a third rounder for Yakupov.

And the Flames will sign Jankowski tomorrow.
