Whew! Ovie went crashing into a Carolina Hurricane in last night's game and there was a knee to knee collision. Ovie was given a 5:00 major and a game misconduct and may face additional suspensions from the league but the larger concern was that Ovie was on the ice for several minutes and then needed to be helped off of the ice. It looked bad but reports this morning was that he was able to walk on the bus under his own power after the game and then he took part briefly in the morning skate.
Apparently he is day to day and barring any suspension could be made available for the Caps next game.
Losing the reigning 2 time NHL MVP would be a devastating blow to the Caps who are looking to go to the Cup. Right now, they have one of the best teams in hockey and look to be hitting their stride. The best part is that others are contributing and both Theo and Varly are solid in the net.
