We at Russian Machine have made a habit of covering Tom Wilson‘s pregame butt-slashes on TJ Oshie. Wilson and former Capital Michael Latta started the bizarre ritual during the 2015-16 season.
Thursday night against the Hurricanes, however, TJ Oshie continued with his new tradition, making like a human tornado and giving out butt slashes to all of his teammates.

Look at TJ’s spinning wind-up here. It doesn’t look like the slash affects Wilson much, though, as he turns right around and sticks Oshie… right between the legs.
No decaf for this guy. @TJOshie77 is fired up for #CapsCanes. It comes your way at 7 with @JoeBpXp and @Laughlin18 on @NBCSWashington @NBCSCapitals & @NHLNetwork #ALLCAPS pic.twitter.com/gWZmnxOEfc

Is that the Tasmanian Devil, destroying everything in his path on the ice? Not quite, just Oshie taking out his pregame jitters.
What a bunch of weirdos.
