He'll probably set the all-time KHL record in 3 more seasons at Dynamo

Gonna guess Ovi is going to do the quiet retirement at the end of the season.

I get that feeling...especially with the price of the April 12th tickets...

Speaking of old farts, Manuel Neuer just put on a goaltending clinic against Real Madrid at age 40...Hasek-level contortions but in front of a 24 foot goal

Per Grant Paulsen - Ovi won't announce his plans until after the season.

In the inimitable words of Ken "Hawk" Harrelson..."He gone."

People dump on Hawk but I give him credit for doing play-by-play.

Perhaps this is another Carp "see...you...late--and it's caught at the warning track"

Southsiders loved him...I could take him or leave him. 

He had it pretty rough as an announcer/cheerleader after 2005 with the Sox being suck...but he'll always have 2005...like we'll always have 2019...AND 2018...

I didn't recall that his MLB career was quite so pedestrian...kudos to him for making it 9 seasons in the Bigs...

his 1968 power numbers were in  the context of the year of the pitcher, so he had a legit good year.

Pittsburgh only has 9 shots on Logan Thompson thru 2 periods...and 3 goals.  A .667 save percentage...  :smh:

Yeah...all of the Pinguin big guys are sitting...failed to mention that.  AND they re-calculated the shots...they only had 8, so it was a .625 Save Percentage thru 2 periods...

Ovi wouldn’t let the penguins set up a handshake line after today’s game.

Philly clinching in a shootout is tough.

My good friend in Dartmouth, NS and fellow WNFF member NatsAllThe Way is a Habs fan, so I'll be pullin' for Suzuki and the Canadiens...

Montreal hasn't had a good riot since '93 so I can get behind that  :P

Sure sounds like Ovi is coming back.
