It was shocking and refreshing that the Post not only had a lengthy and positive article on anything hockey, but that they made it the cover story. This naturally made me wonder how the article came to be. Have the editors of the Washington Post finally realized that the best athlete in the NHL and arguably in all of sports plays right here on F Street?

The images conjured from the word describing the ball park and 21st birthday scenes were well done in my opinion. The million dollar question, to me, is: with so many references to the Meehan agency assisting with everything from cell phone plans to sticks to Arlington real estate, why fire him? “Lineman” or “line mate” - this is Washington media - and I’m happy for a well-written, insightful article focused on Ovie.

"Omsk is like Pittsburgh," Alex said. "It's not like New York." Why does it please me so that Alex singles out Pittsburgh as an example of a, shall we say, less-than-ideal place to play? Has he bought into the rivalry with the team to the northwest we love to hate? From the article -

Alex’s mother, angry at Dynamo and uncertain about when the Caps would skate again, urged her son to go to Siberia and accept a lucrative offer to play for the team in the city of Omsk.

“Omsk is like Pittsburgh,” Alex said. “It’s not like New York.”

Why does it please me so that Alex singles out Pittsburgh as an example of a, shall we say, less-than-ideal place to play? Has he bought into the rivalry with the team to the northwest we love to hate?
