Last Friday, the Edmonton Oilers surprised no one when they selected 18-year old Russian phenom Nail Yakupov with the first pick of the 2012 NHL Entry Draft. Yakupov, according to this incredible top secret website that I use to research stuff, hails from the Republic of Tatarstan. A fun fact about that region: I’ve never heard of it in my life.
Anywho, Yakupov is apparently so excited to play for the Oilers and win the team’s fans over that he launched an impromptu Q&A session on his Twitter account last night. And if you’re wondering how the interaction between a Russian teenager with basic English language skills and his fans would play out, well, it was about as adorable as you’d expect.

Now that’s just a small sample, as he responded to a lot of his followers, and most of his responses were one word or just emoticons. But there was one Oilers fan who really wanted to bring out the best of Yakupov.

Whether or not Yakupov is actually a virgin is his business, but this ambitious young lady wanted to make sure that he knew the offer was out there when she Tweeted this GIF…

But before the No. 1 pick and new Oilers star gets excited, she also Tweeted this picture, so I’d say that this one comes with a red flag. How do you say discretion in Tatar?


So when he does become unvirginized, will he say NAILED IT?
Tatarstan? #1 Export: Tater-tots.
The thought of a land of Tater Tots is so exciting!
*Picks up phone*
Hello, airplane!? Take me to Tater-Tot land!
Nice WWJD? bracelet on that girl.
I think the creepiness makes her hotter…
*Looks at the picture of the chick*
Nail, If a woman tells you she’s 20 and looks 16. . . She’s 12. That’s illegal in Canada.
Look at his full twitter timeline, almost all the questions he answered were hilarious. A+ twitter trolling.
