Remember when Ovi failed to pass 2'd round of Playoffs for a long time?
this has nothing to do with Ovi Being Russian.
This was a standard HFboards used on players they disliked, "Well he hasn't won shit, so he hasn't proved anything Narrative."
This was used heavily on Crosby for not winning anything important, and he was Canadian. He got so much flack from Hfboards, and more importantly Roberto Luongo took a lot of hit for also not winning anything important he's also a Canadian. So in return Ovi will obviously get the same treatment for also not winning anything important.
It goes true to today. Leafs fans poke fun of Mcdavid for not leading his team. In return other fans also poke fun of Matthews for unable to win a damn round. 3 goals combined between him and Marner in the last 23 NHL playoff games? That's horrible.
I really don't think nationality has anything to do with anything more. Cole Caulfield is American. He's doing good and getting good attention for it.
