13dangledangle 952 Report post Posted January 25, 2012 Not sure if this has been posted but I just saw that because Ovie is "suspended" he shoudn't go to the allstar game? Has this ever been an issue before?. After reading the article it left me feeling like he's kinda being a baby about it, like Im taking my ball and going home sorta stuff, but oh well I wonder who his replacement will be?

lil Wing's fan 1 Report post Posted January 25, 2012 Maybe he's a little embarrassed or something but I can't understand why he would not go he seems to love stuff like that....He's usually has the biggest smile anyways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wings_Dynasty 267 Report post Posted January 25, 2012 Maybe he feels that since he was suspended he shouldn't be there. Or he feels that it is dumb for him to be there since he isn't very good this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

akustyk 84 Report post Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) He sounds like a baby. I have to say, I have similar impression of his interview. am not Ovie's hater, I actually always liked this kid,but his body language during whole interview leaves you with an impression that he just doesn't care and wants to show how hurt his feelings are, so "just screw yourself NHL"... he has a point, that beings suspended he should probably avoid controversy and sit down away from mediato not generate negative coverage for the NHL during the prime time for the league... on the side note... it's not like he has to speak with Sheriff Shanny about the reasoning. the video with explanationis available on NHL.com, just watch it and learn what is exactly that the league does not want you to do any more.period. you're here to play hockey, the league is responsible for setting and enforcing the rules.

cusimano_brothers 1,655 Report post Posted January 25, 2012 He seems needy; since Mr.Boudreau isn't their anymore to embarrass, he now feels the need to embarass himself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hockey&beer 16 Report post Posted January 25, 2012 The way I see it, he shouldn't have even come out and said anything. The league should have told him he couldn't go. He's suspended, that's what that means. If he hadn't declined to go and the league allowed him to participate, I would be screaming BS with the suspensions of Pavs and Nick. Maybe, just maybe, someone asked Ovie to backout so the league wouldn't have to take a stand and tell one of it's most exciting players to stay home. 1 Jasper84 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
