Ozolinsh Grateful For The Opportunity

from the Mercury News,

The Sharks welcomed back an old face Sunday. Defenseman Sandis Ozolinsh arrived for a training camp tryout.

“This is a good opportunity for him and for us,” said Sharks General Manager Doug Wilson. “We’ll just see where it goes. We think it’s well worth the time.”

Ozolinsh, who has dealt with well-documented problems off the ice, said he spent the summer deciding if he was prepared to continue playing.

“I was less concerned about my physical strength than I was my mental condition,” he said. “I wanted to make sure my head was in the right place. I’m really grateful for this opportunity, and I’ll make the most of it.”

On behalf of the Rangers - Good riddance.  We want our third rounder back Anaheim!

Seriously though, Ozo is a solid player when he’s not boozing it up, and he deserves another shot with a team that has a strong off-ice support system.  Are the Sharks that team?  Who knows.  Guess we’ll have to wait and see…
