Aberg is reminding me more and more of Yakupov as time goes on.

Has a "great shot" in the sense that it is hard, but it doesn't seem particularly accurate so it's sort of useless. And while he seems to be a good skater he doesn't seem to be particularly good at knowing where to be or knowing that he needs to be pointed at the net to get his shot off.

I think both Bear and Jones will become decent NHL D men. Bear has more potential given his offensive skills. Reminds me a bit of Oduya (in his prime) in terms of his skating and puck movement, but his shot should make him a better point producer.

I haven't seen anything from him that makes me think he could be a top 6 guy.

I get what you're saying. At least he's been more noticeable than Letestu had been. Not hard to do though..

Almost two full games and not one Oiler can score a tally except 97. Pathetic.
