Fail to see what there is to fight over. Big boobs are big boops.

I think Ovie is just being expected of too much. He should not be on the kill at all. He can't really create his own shot. He's basically a big hitter with a monster slap, and the ability to skate well, but not handle the puck.

Ovie should be getting like 10 one timers a night.

ovie creates his own shots just fine. not as much as in the past. so he has a lot of almost created shots that fizzle. a lot of guys can't even get to that point. tied for fifth in the league last year while playing without anything close to a 1C for half the season. ovie streaking down the wing one on two is still a good scoring chance. he doesnt have the success like he had in the past. but i dont think there is anybody else in the league as dangerous in an one on one situation. his shot is lethal, even though it hits too many shin pads nowadays, and he can power through you or juke around you. some guys might be better at juking but they dont have the other tools to keep a defender honest

ovie and backstrom seemed to have better shifts when johanson wasnt involved. hope to see ovie and backstrom with wolski tomorrow. or maybe hendricks.  johanson was basically useless last night. worse tha playing shorthanded in the offensive zone because you thought you could pass to him. better to just not have that option
