Yes one of the greatest goal scorers of all time, Stanley cup winner, and 38 year old winger may need help. Dont compare this to Huberdeau haha

The fact that the Hudredeau apologists have to resort to using Grandpa Ovie as a comparable says all we need to know about his level.

100%. And normally I'd be bummed to not get to see this record attempt happen, but with his ugly political support, I'm happy he's looking like he's toast.

My post was all in good fun. I do not take this year seriously at all. Wins are nice but I still hope for a top pick. Love the youth movement. We can live with Huberdeaus contract if we get some more skilled young guys.

I'd argue the current embargoes and sanctions may have already ended his "treatments"

Other people have alluded to this before. Was he known to have been bypassing NHL testing and using performance enhancing drugs? Or was it a scenario where he wasn't getting caught?

I very highly doubt Ovie has been getting away with doping all these years.

Id be shocked if the NHL didn't, or any major sport in NA didn't have a PED epidemic.

It's obvious the NHL has a PED problem, no way everyone's clean and the last suspension I recall was Jose Theodore in like 2006.

If Andrei Zyuzin was juicing then, just like his on-ice play, he sucked at it.
