I wasn’t the only one impressed by Evgeny Kuznetsov‘s shootout move. Tuesday night after the lowly Edmonton Oilers defeated the Caps 5-4, Nail Yakupov, the first overall pick of the 2012 NHL Draft, tweeted his friend and fellow countryman.

Fedor was nice enough to translate their entire exchange, which surprisingly had nothing to do with late night filings and Ivan Drago.

Nail Yakupov: “After a decent road trip, going home 😉 was glad to see you and thanks for STUFF @kuzya92”

Evgeny Kuznetsov: “Always glad to see you man. Good luck and all the best! Keep in touch bro”

Nail Yakupov: “Teach me your shootout moves”

Evgeny Kuznetsov: “You know I wanted a backhand there”

Nail Yakupov: “I thought you’ll go classic (under the blocker)”
