Cherry blasts Yakupov after 'dirty' comments

I find this all very,very disturbing.

Who'd have ever thought Cherry would be on Twitter.

Of course Yakupov will respond by saying his comments were taken out of context.

Holy Mackeral......who knew?

Although I think I heard that earlier about the Russians. From Sid I think. He said they were all lazy except for Geno.

:-)

Gonna be a real interesting moment when Nail walks into the Oilers dressing room next year. Captain Canada will likely be real impressed.

Ah, but I remember the Russian Five of the Wings, who played some good 'D' but didn't have to because they had the puck most of the time.

So he's starting out his NHL life living in Canada on a team that is predominantly Canadian and he thinks Canadian players are dirty. Better watch your back Yak because nobody will have it if you keep up that kind of talk.

Yes, but only once. Not only is he showing off his English, he's showing he has no idea how to put those words in a sentence. Which is probably what he'll get when he gets his first fast car over here (as in here in the west)

I find it more disturbing that I actually agree with Cherry for once...

Seems as if Yakupov thinks that he deserves a free pass to the front of the net just because of who he is. I hope that isn't his attitude going into the nhl...

I know that hence the sarcasm...

Wait till he gets (when/if) to Edmonton. He better be ready for a lot of that.

Cherry is a dope that needs to be retired and Yakupov should just shut his mouth and play hockey
