I Agree with Everything Alex Said Here…
Go to 7 minutes and 20 seconds in. I couldn’t have said it better myself!
I guess we will all be going to Russia with love for these games.
Russian Women Want to Meet You
It is good to be Ovie. It is good to be King.
I am kind of speechless. Check out this article and photos within. I am glad there are only about 30 days left in the off season but it is good to see Ovie back on the playing field again.
Alex is one of a kind and as he said in his latest MVP acceptance speech in Las Vegas, “What a life.”
Is Ovie More Popular than Obama?
In Russia, he is. Thanks to our President who mentioned Alex Ovechkin during his speech in Russia yesterday.

Good Story by Eric
This is no joke. These are serious people working in a strong local economy.
A Chapter Closed
Jaromir Jagr is leaving the NHL and going to play in Russia.
It was seven years ago that we made the trade to bring him to Washington, DC…a lifetime in sports. So much water has gone under the bridge in that time frame. We have a completely different team than the one he played on now.
This press story reminded me of that summer so long ago when we made the trade for Jagr, the hope and promise it represented and the eventuality of how it turned out for our team. Not all big deals and big signings work out. We took a risk. It didn’t work and we have moved on. A lesson learned.
I wish him the best in his new career in Russia.
Russian Media on World Championship
Check out this article on the Russian reaction to their win at the World Championship. As noted Alex Ovechkin, Alex Semin and Sergei Fedorov are big time national heroes now and Prime Minister Putin is deeply involved in all of their activities.
Russian Celebration
Fedorov. Ovechkin. Semin. They are all big time national heroes over in Russia right now. And deservedly so. The President of Russia has invited them all to the Kremlin and there will be a major ticker tape parade thrown in their honor. We are proud of our players who won the gold medal. We are also proud of all of our other players who excelled at the World Championship including Huet, Green, Backstrom, Fleischmann and Lepisto.
