I have the choice between Yakupov or select 1 of the 5 fisrt pick at the next draft ( 2013 draft ).
It's for a point only keeper league.

take a chance to go with one of those ?
Mckinnon
Drouin
Barkov
Monahan
Lindholm
( or? )

or stay with Yaku?

(Only fwd. No seth Jones in that list.)

I'd stick with Yak. But a case can be made for Mackinnon

I'd rather have Yakupov over anybody on that list anyway, even if you had 1st overall next year I would still keep Nail..

Yakupov. He'll be flanking RNH and Hall. This may end up being the most explosive line in hockey. You don't give that up for an unknown situation or a player who doesn't match his SIZE and SKILL SET.

Well said.

Keep Yaks here. You'll be happy you did in 2 years. Tempting list, but no. Enjoy the Oil rush!!

No question that you should stick with what you know (Yakupov) vs what you don't know. I hate making assumptions and it's not like there's a young Mario Lemieux waiting in the 2013 draft.

Yakupov has just been drafted as a first overall, and you aren't getting a guarenteed first overall pick, value wise it makes it very easy to keep Yakupov.

With Yakupov being drafted one year earlier, you will probably see your investment pay off quicker, on top of that I like his potential every bit as much as I like MacKinnon's.
