Hard to say how Ovie will react. He is/was very close to his parents. His dad was in poor health for sometime, but not sure they were expecting his death. He IS the captain and a presence on the ice/bench/locker room though, so hopefully they will all be up for this one.
Plus....how many stinkers can you throw in a row? Luck has to shine their way at some point even if they are not at there best. They are getting scoring chances, they just aren't scoring.

I swear to god, I'd keep Ovi, Nicky (for nostalgia) and Wilson and move every-single-one else that I could. All of em, no exceptions. That includes -all- the coaches and GM.

Yeah, I like keeping centers too. I am excited to see a whole new group in the near future.

Bummer it's not a dozen other guys.

I mean fuck it...why not. We were likely going to lose Orlov anyway - or WAY overpay him.
Hathy sucks to see go cause the guy brings energy and havoc, (but little else). He is well liked though. You wanted change....gonna lose some guys you like.
I would MUCH rather JQC have been healthy and we got a bag a pucks for him.
Did we really retain half Orlov's salary :huh: . Oh, but it's only this year so who cares.
And now we now why McIlrath was moved up for a couple games.
It will be funny when we beat Boston in the first round of the playoffs this year. :wackysmile:
