I don't hate Pyatt or anything but like others have said be doesn't offer anything in terms of offense. Dorsett isn't a dynamo by any stretch of the imagination but outside of Powe, Boyle, and Pyatt all of our forwards can score at least a little.

Alex Ovechkin's shirt this morning: "I Will Step On You To Win." #Caps

I see this as an insecurity thing to be honest, he's trying to do some mind****ing and we all know a confident person uses their performance and talent over head games.... or maybe it's just a nod to Cooke..

Imagine if Powe turns into this scoring monster now? Playoff hero type ****. :handclap:

like when he watched our practice a few years ago. (i think it was the first year we played them)

With someone working as hard and often as OV does, it's beyond wonder how he keeps up the doughy physique.

I don't see how.

Not all pro athletes are Adonises, regardless of what they said in Goon. :laugh:

I could care less how thick he is. Nash isn't exactly a mite either. They're power forwards. Jagr's massive ass won him many a game.

I'm not saying it reflects his performance or work ethic, and maybe it's something to do with genetics or age, but with the sheer amount of cardio these guys do, how they could possibly manage to keep any extra weight on them is unthinkable to me
 
really? up until like 4 games ago he hadn't scored in like 30 games. the definition of useless out there

how many goals did our bottom six score last season? The 14 different players that were our bottom six and even the guys that played on the top 2 lines when Nash, Callahan, Boyle, Richards were out scored...10 goals? Pyatt had 7 or so by himself. Expecting a bottom 6 player who does the dirty board work to score more than 15 goals in a 82 game season under Torts' system is ludicrous.
 
That shirt is just dumb. It's like the Rangers wearing a shirt that said "I will cook your chicken in the oven to win"

Plus- if you do step on someone, you are probably gonna miss the rest of the playoff series with a suspension.

By nighttime, he becomes Komrade Kolbasa. Can't have those sausages go to waste, so he eats them.
 
Also, I'm pretty sure that's just a Nike shirt. I doubt there's a pun intended.

I doubt OV's brain works well enough to think of that anyways.

Read this 5 minutes ago. Still laughing. :laugh:
 
I'm fairly certain the shirt is just a coincidence. The only thing that throws me off is that it doesn't seem witty or topical in any other context...
 
That's just a Nike shirt...you guys really thought that was intentional?
 
Talking about Ovechkin's attire makes me wish we started the series a little earlier in the week. What are we going to be talking about on hump day? Backstrom's long fingernails?

He has long fingernails?

He did that so he could flip the Rangers off harder! What a *****! :rant:

Or he could be trying to look fabulous?

I mean he already has the hair:

75


What a ****ing motley crew Washington has: him, Ovechkin, Beardo, and the Italian, French-Canadian crypt keeper.
 
I don't want him re-signed, but he's at least a better option than Pyatt in the top 9.

Still don't understand the Pyatt hate.

I don't see how stating that Clowe is a better top-9 option than Pyatt can be classified as "hate".

Pyatt has probably been the definition of "plug" this year; he doesn't really hurt us out there, but he doesn't add anything either. He's just... there.
