“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.

Blog o Alexovi, psaný anglicky, je vážně kvalitní a aktuální
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.

Congratulations to Alex and team Russia for winning :) Our Slovak team played good, but Russians were better and deserve to win.
YES!!! Final score Russia 3 Slovakia 1 with Ovie scoring the game winning goal. I read he was named player of the game and awarded a brand new Rolex, as if he needs it. I never heard of awarding prizes for each game, so this was news to me.
Ovie looks great. He seems very happy to be representing his country at the WC and having fun playing hockey again. This was my hope before the tournament started and I hope it continues to the end, hopefully with Team Russia victorious defending their title. It will help ease my pain after the Caps Game 7 loss knowing Ovie is on the mend at last.
Thanks, Andrea! Halak is the best!
