Caps would just do pavelski for ovi lol

What an ovrrpayment for Ovechkin. It seems like some people still think he's a top 5 or even a top 3 of the world. But I'm pretty sure he's not.

He's never scored less than thirty goals in a year. Still. Let that sink in for a minute. Also, his career +/-, at +84, is better than Ron Francis, Kris Draper, or Ryan Kessler, all of whom won the Selke trophy, and none of whom played primarily on their team's first line. You okay? I think SJ throws in another first, or at least another two seconds and a third, and Washington has to start thinking it's reasonable as a way to slightly improve the team while staying within the salary cap.

Otherwise, when Pavelski puts together eight more thirty-plus-goal seasons, and gets two years younger, you call us, okay, California?
