SPECIAL OTTENTION

I have come to the conclusion that Steve Ott is the most effective (and diobolical) skilljacker currently in the game.

Wanna question my lord-like authority? Don't.

I challenge you to name a better dill than Butch's boy.

Dan Carcillo? Jarko Ruutu? Alex Burrows? - please.

Even the once venerable Claude Lemieux now pales in comparison as he returns to hockey in San Jose.

Nope...he's the top p&%ck on the circuit.

The Ott is like a menacing icetroll complete with a real sick side, an agenda, and some serious a-bil-i-ty. He has his list of top scorers and he makes it his personal quest to ensure both their ineffectiveness and their ongoing misery while at the same time punishing their teams on the scoreboard. (Sweet combo)

From a broadcast angle, he makes our coverage compelling. (Or "compellinger" since I'm must see TV too) Every night we have an edited gem from video masher, Handsome Johnny Sponsler featuring Ott's hits, delinquent behaviour, petulence, truculence, effort, scoring chances, and until just recently - goals.

We could do three a game...easily.

And if they ever let us roll "open mic" on him we will have to hire Loomis cause it will be profanity-peppered GOLD!

Probably the best compliment you can pay a guy who plays his style is that 29 other teams loathe him yet at the same time covet him.

Steve Ott: part junk yard dog, part rabid pitbull, complete labradoodle off the ice, and head to toe - best in breed.

Grrruuff, be-aw-chez!
