I think Oates waited a little to long to go back to Nick and Ovi but whatever. Ribs has been our best player and Ovi was at least getting chances more games than not.
While it may have been our system, Nick's neck, whatever, they did show little to warrant staying together. And Ribs deserved a big long look with Ovi to help decide if we should retain him.
I think Ovi is trending upwards despite his recent stats.
I will boldly predict two goals from Ovi tonight. At ES. Boldly, wow have times changed.
