After last night’s gruesome defeat in game 7, everyone seems to have the answers to questions about what went wrong and criticism about everything Ovie did or didn’t do during the playoffs. We admit we’re taking part in that, too (although most of our criticism falls elsewhere *ahemmikegreencough*…ANYway…), but for Quovechkin purposes, let’s let the wounds heal for a little while and just express our gratitude to the Great 8 for his leadership, skill, showmanship, a phenomenal regular season and of course this: What if Ovechkin Didn’t Kill Jagr?
