Andy Strickland likes how T.J. Oshie "handles his business"

Post by ohio BLUES »

Whatever this means:
Understanding the importance of rest, how to prepare, and proper diet are area’s Oshie has shown great strides. It’s pretty hard to compete at the highest level without making this commitment. You can probably get by with natural ability for the first few years but after that you’re putting yourself at a disadvantage.


Oshie has been hit with his share of injuries including last year when he missed 31 games following ankle surgery. The ankle injury was more circumstance than anything, pretty hard to avoid a player pulling you down from behind and getting your ankle caught under your body. To suggest he’s injury prone wouldn’t be fair or accurate.

The former North Dakota standout has always been a player described as having a high pain tolerance. Playing through pain is part of the business and Oshie is a good as anyone at dealing with the bruises that comes with an 82 game schedule. Considering his style of play, he needs to be able to handle pain. There’s no way he could continue to play the way he does and stay healthy without turning his training up a notch.

It’s Oshie’s game on the ice that’s expected to reward him this summer. He’s a diverse player who brings more value than can be measured through stats alone. Oshie finds a way to make an impact virtually every time he touches the ice. Whether it’s a hit, a play in the defensive end, or creating offense, he plays in every situation and gives Head Coach Ken Hitchcock close to 20 hard minutes every night.
"area's." This is a professional journalist, mind you.

"Professional" and "Strickland" should never be uttered in the same sentence.
He's such a hack.

Actually, I'm pretty sure you just offended some hacks by associating them with him.

I noted your word "journalist" as opposed to "Journalist". There's a difference and I appreciate that. However, Strickland is neither.

No disagreement here. It's pretty rare to see a good sports Journalist.

Is it like the whole "School of Rock' joke?

Those who can't teach, teach gym.

Those who can't write, write sports. It'd make sense as a stereotype, I suppose.

Yeah, and besides...Strickland probably got his job, at least in part, because of his cool last name. It just sounds...sportsy.
