Dec. 11, 2017 Yakupov will play Saturday. Yakupov had been sidelined with an illness.
Nov. 10, 2017 Yakupov scored Friday against the Senators. It's been an up-and-down first season in Colorado for the former No. 1 overall pick. Yakupov had five points in the first four games before going seven straight without one. He now has three points in the last four contests.
Oct. 11, 2017 Yakupov finished with a goal and an assist in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Bruins. Yakupov has three goals in the two games against the Bruins. A former No. 1 overall pick, Yakupov is trying to resurrect his career in Colorado.
Oct. 9, 2017 Yakupov scored twice in Colorado's 4-0 win over the Bruins on Monday. It took him three games, but Yakupov finally scored his first goals with the Avs.
July 4, 2017 The Avalanche signed Yakupov to a one-year contract Tuesday. The former top overall pick had been an unrestricted free agent after not receiving a qualifying offer from the Blues, for whom he had just nine points in 40 games last season. "Nail is a young, skilled winger who will add depth to our lineup," Avalanche general manager Joe Sakic said. Sakic hopes to revive Yakupov's career after being a big disappointment since Edmonton picked him No. 1 overall in 2012.
June 26, 2017 The St. Louis Blues opted against extending a qualifying offer to Yakupov on Monday, making the top overall pick of the 2012 draft an unrestricted free agent. Yakupov collected just nine points (three goals, six assists) in 40 games last season after spending four years with the Edmonton Oilers.
Nov. 11, 2016 On Thursday, Yakupov, a healthy scratch the last three games, drew back into the lineup in favor of C Robby Fabbri, who played in the Blues' first 14 games. Yakupov continues to underachieve so don't worry about him from a fantasy standpoint.
Oct. 21, 2016 Yakupov scored 3:37 into the first period Thursday in his first game back in Edmonton since being traded to the Blues. The former Oilers No. 1 overall draft pick, who received a nice tribute on the scoreboard in the first period, has two goals through five games after finishing last season with career lows of eight goals and 23 points.
Oct. 14, 2016 Yakupov was a factor in the Blues' 3-2 win over Minnesota on Thursday, with the former No. 1 overall pick producing a goal and an assist in just 8:30 of ice time. A major disappointment in Edmonton, Yakupov will be a player to keep an eye on in St. Louis. The 23-year-old's talent is undeniable, but his track record of inconsistency and the unlikelihood of him cracking the top two lines barring injuries are definite risk factors.
Oct. 7, 2016 Yakupov's disappointing run with the Edmonton Oilers has come to an end, as the team has traded the former No. 1 overall pick to St. Louis in exchange for forward Zach Pochiro and a conditional 2017 draft pick. Yakupov never scored more than 17 goals in any of his four seasons with the Oilers and managed a career-low eight in 60 games last season. The 23-year-old finishes his tenure in Edmonton with 50 goals, 61 assists and a minus-88 rating in 252 games. It's unclear what kind of role he'll have on a deep St. Louis team.
Sept. 30, 2016 Yakupov is dealing with a lower body injury. The Oilers don't believe it is serious and he should be ready to begin the regular season.
March 4, 2016 Yakupov had a goal Thursday. With 16 points in 44 games, Yakupov continues to be a disappointment.
Nov. 26, 2015 Yakupov scored in his return Thursday. The Edmonton winger sprained his ankle after getting tangled up with a linesman in a 4-1 loss to Carolina on Nov. 25.
Oct. 22, 2015 Yakupov had a pair of assists as Edmonton snapped an eight-game losing streak against Detroit with the win Wednesday. He has five points in the last three games.
Oct. 17, 2015 Yakupov had a goal and one assist Saturday night. Yakupov is a noted fantasy bust from the past but now has the uber-talented Connor McDavid on his club.
April 13, 2015 Yakupov has signed a two-year extension with the Edmonton Oilers. Terms were not immediately available. The 21-year-old Russian winger has come under criticism for not producing as much as expected early in his NHL career. The No. 1 pick in the 2012 draft has 42 goals and 46 assists for 88 points in 192 games. Yakupov had a league-worst minus-35 rating this season, but that was partly a product of being on a team near the bottom of the standings.
March 19, 2015 Yakupov had one goal and one assist Saturday. Yakupov is last in the NHL at minus-33, though he is starting to produce more with six points in a five-game run.
Feb. 24, 2015 Yakupov returned Saturday. Yakupov missed Tuesday's win over Minnesota with a groin injury.
Feb. 19, 2015 Yakupov had a goal Wednesday. Amidst a six-game point streak, Yakupov has three goals in two games.
Feb. 17, 2015 Yakupov scored twice Monday. He has three goals with three assists during a five-game point streak.
Jan. 10, 2015 Yakupov had a goal and an assist in Friday's 5-2 win over Chicago. Yakupov's two points matched his total from the previous 25 games.
Dec. 31, 2014 Yakupov came up empty yet again Tuesday. The former No. 1 pick has no points in 10 games and eight overall as he remains one of the biggest busts in recent memory.
March 19, 2014 Yakupov is dealing with an ankle injury. Yakupov's status is not clear for one of the NHL's worst teams.
Jan. 28, 2014 Yakupov had two assists Monday in a 4-2 win over the Canucks. Yakupov finally reached 20 points.
Jan. 4, 2014 Yakupov scored Friday for the Oilers. He has a goal in two straight games after he was healthy scratch against the Coyotes on New Year's Eve.
Dec. 31, 2013 Yakupov was scratched Tuesday for the Oilers. Yakupov had a meeting Monday with coach Dallas Eakins after being in the coach's doghouse earlier this season. The 2012 top overall draft pick had been skating on the fourth line as he has six goals along and is an NHL-worst minus-25. He is possibly the biggest bust of the fantasy season and it's hard to believe he will have an impact in the Sochi Games as well due his abysmal play.
Nov. 26, 2013 Yakupov returned on Thanksgiving for the Oilers. Yakupov has a lower-body injury for the lowly Oilers. Yakupov is showing signs of breaking out of a season-long slump with five points in five games so monitor the developments on a player who was one of the bigger busts of the fantasy season.
Nov. 20, 2013 Yakupov had a goal and an assist as the Oilers routed the Columbus Blue Jackets 7-0 on Tuesday. Yakupov has four points in three games and could be turning around his horrendous season.
Nov. 14, 2013 Yakupov had another pathetic effort in another loss, 3-0 to Dallas. Yakupov scored in his previous game against Chicago but remains stuck on two goals - both on the power play. He is a major fantasy bust at even strength and the Oilers frankly are nearly short-handed when he is on the ice in such situations.
Oct. 25, 2013 Yakupov was at minus-four in a 4-1 loss to the Caps on Thursday night. The former No. 1 overall pick is a major fantasy bust with no goals and one assist and already got into coach Dallas Eakins' doghouse. He is an abysmal skater to use in fantasy play.
Oct. 15, 2013 Yakupov was a healthy scratch for the second straight game Monday. The No. 1 overall selection in the 2012 draft is pointless in four games.
April 27, 2013 Yakupov and Corey Potter each scored two goals, and the Edmonton Oilers prevented the Minnesota Wild from clinching a spot in the Western Conference playoffs with a 6-1 rout on Friday night. The No. 1 overall pick's 14 goals and 28 points are tied for the league lead among rookies with one game remaining.
