I did not believe he would last in the NHL. I thought Washington might be able to keep him for 6 or 8 years but he would get tired of losing or he would want to go home. Washington was a bad team and took many re-builds to get to a top 4 team but to his credit, he stuck with it. His perseverance, skill, and leadership have been inspirational. I am a big fan of his and hope he plays at his usual high skill level for a number of years to come. Blessings!

we will likely never see a player like ovi again once he calls it quits on the nhl
