I read in Sovetsky Sport that Dynamo Moscow want to get Jeff O’Neal [to play in Russia]. Is it so?

Not exactly. Dynamo President said that they are talking with a Canadian player who was a first round pick. Eric Lindros and Jeff Friesen also fit that description.

No, those two won’t come. I heard that Lindros was going to retire. And I talked with Friesen when he played in Washington. I suggested he try to play in the Superleague. But he thinks that wild bears roam the streets in Russia. He said that he would find a team in the NHL.

How do you have fun here?

We go to the movies. Not long ago Malkin, Radulov and I went to see Transformers.

Alright, I have to go train some more.

You don’t spare yourself, Alex.

Enough rest! The new season is almost here!

    Wouldn’t it be great to make your living as an athelete? Not just the money, and respecting that they are under a great deal of presure, but these guys exercise for a living!

  2. Yeah…exercising for a living and getting steel mounted into your jaws after one-to-many checks’ for a living keeps a fan and away from the ice.

    Ovie is quite the dude. He really seems like a first class guy to me. I think his parents did a great job raising him. I think he’ll be a Cap for a long time, but I would like to see a 5 year deal signed before October.
