RNH wore a different number in junior, so not like Nail would be set on 10. I like 18 as it has been pointed out that it a) looks like 10 and b) was hte percent chance of Edmonton drafting him.
...if Yakupov was playing rush end for the Eskimos. As long as he chooses one from among the Oilers' available hockey numbers, I'll be happy.
He will pick a hockey number which falls between 1 and 98 (since 99 is no longer available). Gotta love people who think 96 is not a hockey number but 99 was ok to have.

Gotta love people who get all pi$$y and condescending when someone has an opinion that's different than theirs. I'm old school about this and always have been. Before Gretzky's first home game as an Oiler the program said he'd be wearing #20. I was actually unhappy when he came out wearing #99. For some reason, I learned to live with it- eventually.

Wow. Really? I've never heard anyone say that about Gretzky's number.
The most epic number ever. But that's just me.
I think that Yakupov should wear.... #21. I think it's a good number for a player like him.
I like one of 3 numbers... 96 because he idolizes Bure 98 a number that I haven't seen yet (is there a #98 in the league) and we can only pray he is almost as great as Gretzky.
OR 21 not so much because he wore 21 at the WJC but more so because this will be his age when he wins his first Stanley Cup with the Oil!

1983 NHL Draft, Brian Lawton drafted first overall wearing number 98, bad idea.
Seriously, I think he goes with 21, like he did with the WJC.
