First off, we can all cheer, as Nail Yakupov remains in the top six. Not only is Yakupov in the top six, but guess who he is with? That’s right, Connor McDavid. You can start screaming and cheering now, because this combination is finally happening.
This is going to be a great decision and experiment. McDavid and Yakupov are based off of similar values but opposite roles. Both of them are speedy and can move down the ice in just a matter of seconds. The only thing is, is that McDavid’s more of your playmaker, and Yakupov is a sniper.
