Here’s the list of players headed to OKC this afternoon, just hours before the impending NHL lockout.  Enjoy this as much as you can, Oklahoma.  (I’m looking at you, Neal).

GM Tambellini also announces D David Musil has been assigned to WHL Vancouver and F Nail Yakupov has been assigned to OHL Sarnia

Uh huh. Yakupov to Sarnia. I’ve got a couple nickels on that one not happening.

We’re just a few hours beforeLockout 2012-13 officially kicks off.  We’ve seen it coming up over the horizon for a long time now.

Grab your can coolers, it’s going to be a while.
