good on Yak. I hope he really turns it around in St. Louis - not only because it'd be hilarious to keep laughing about the Oilers, but also because he's never really been a part of the smug golden boys up north. Yes there was this ridiculous slide in his first game, but afterwards the Oilers dumpster fire seemed to suck the life out of him. There were loads of relief when he scored yesterday, you could see how much that meant to him. Will be hilarious to see him do well under Hitch. He'll probably never live up to the 1st overall, but with a good coach and some adjustments there's still potential for a really solid top 6 winger.
