After a week away, the boys are back with a real beauty of an episode — you might say we really nailed this one! That’s right we’re yakking about one of the biggest draft busts of all time, #64 Nail Yakapov! He may have went first overall in 2012, but he was out of the league 6 years later after bouncing from the Oilers to the Blues and finally to the Avs. He returned to mother Russia and have carved himself out a nice career, still playing today…
And speaking of Russian players who have done okay for themselves, we talk extensively about the Great 8 — the NHL’s new all time leading goal scorer, Alex Ovechkin! Ol’ Ovi tied Wayner’s longstanding accomplishment with 2 against the Blackhawks, and then scored number 895 in a loss against the Islanders while we recorded.
Finally, we’ve got a trio of stat lines of the week, plus we talk about other records that might never be broken.
