More good media coming at us this weekend: Off Wing Opinion’s Eric McErlain this weekend published a Sporting News profile of Russian fitness guru Dmitry Kapitonov, whose most prominent client these days is one Alexander Ovechkin. It was Kapitonov who put some elite Russian NHLers through their offseason paces in St. Petersburg last summer.¬†Recently he returned to D.C. to give AO a boost in the regular season’s stretch run. McErlain notes:
“Kapitonov gave no reason for Ovechkin’s seven-game goal drought, but said on a recent visit he found Ovechkin had neglected off-ice exercise to maintain his endurance.”
I’ll give a reason: a pretty girl who flies across an ocean to see you. I’d have cobwebs accumulate on my exercise bike, too.
