I like to head to a Jr. game and catch the projected #1 in person if they’re playing in the OHL. McDavid was mind blowing.

Yakupov spent the entire game at the far blue line, smashing his stick when guys wouldn’t find him for 70’ breakaway passes, and was one of the most one way players I’ve ever seen live. That said, he did seem ridiculously talented offensively. Almost scary. But when it comes to the big league you can’t just rely on that anymore. And it didn’t work for him.
