But Austin is right, he's got the shot, but not the other stuff. Will be interesting to see what he does with Johnny

I did too, but I've come to realize how truly rare Ovi is. 50-40-90 at 36, while continuing to play his physical style of game throughout his career. Laine clearly isn't at that level but I still acknowledge that Laine still has one of the best shots in the NHL. It takes a certain combination of size, drive and raw skill to be an Ovi.
