Nail Yakupov

Nail Yakupov scores twice in Avalanche road win

Nail Yakupov scored two goals helping Colorado to a 4-0 shutout win at Boston. He had four shots on goal in 10:39 minutes of ice time.

Fantasy Impact

He didn't see much ice time, but made the minutes that he did play count by tallying two goals. Yakupov scored just three goals last season in 40 games while playing for the St. Louis Blues and is not exactly pickup material yet for fantasy rosters but he is on a talented second line for Colorado with Matt Duchene and Alexander Kerfoot. He is worth keeping an eye on as the season moves along.
