The breakdown by Tarik El-Bashir, The Washington Post Magazine, "Locker Luxe Ovechkin's gear"
Almost everything Ovechkin wears is tailor-made by the manufacturers he endorses, from his custom pants to his tinted visor and $500-a-pair skates. "If you want to play well, you have to feel comfortable," says Ovechkin, who is most particular about his sticks - he spends 15 minutes before games taping, cutting and tweaking the blade.

“He’s amazing. There aren’t enough words in English or Russian to describe him.”
~Chris Drury
"He's like the shark in Jaws, circling in the water waiting for blood. They should play that music from the movie – da-duh, da-duh, da-duh - when he's out on a shift. He doesn't just go after loose pucks, he hunts them down."
~John Davidson, President of Hockey Operations for the St. Louis Blues.
Keep the faith, TJ, and keep up the good work.
Thank you, Alex Ovetjkin, for killing this ridiculous storyline with this post.

Just wanted to thank you for posting my book on your blog, which I consulted a fair bit while researching and writing the book. In particular, the comprehensive list of links on alexovetjkin.blogspot.com is the best library on Ovechkin material available anywhere.

Well, he's a Virgo and Virgos are known for being very particular about stuff they care about.
(I've noticed that with Virgo bosses on the job. But, that being said, I would rather work for a Virgo than any other sign.)
The only big surprise is the phone, but I'm not up on cell phone technology. I would hope that at $10,000 it works in North America and Europe/Russia.
$10,000 for a phone? Wonder if he still $14 for his hair cut.
