Oshies contract runs thru the end of next year...OOF.



Yes, I think Oshie is really struggling. I noticed last year that he was falling down a lot and this year it is even worse. He just seems to go down with any sort of contact. Still love the guy, but I am afraid he is done. If he weren't a respected veteran that Carburry has to play, I don't think he would have a roster spot. Too bad.

Oshie has always fallen down alot. Like more than any NHL guy I can remember
But yeah, now he seriously looks like it a struggle to get back up and get in the play
I’m hoping it’s just normal Oshie injury tweaks and not …aged beyond ability to play (but I don’t think it is)
We all knew when that contract was made it was 2 years too long. I honestly do think though he left money on the table intentionally for cap space and got a year or two extra for it
