Capitals take playoff opener on Ovechkin game-winner
2008-04-12 22:29:00
The Washington Capitals' storybook entry into the playoffs segued into a storybook postseason opener as presumptive MVP Alex Ovechkin scored the game winning goal to edge out the Philadelphia Flyers, 5-4. Ovechkin's coup de grace of game one capped off a three goal third period rally by the Capitals to overcome a 4-2 deficit after two periods.Washington now holds a one game to none lead headed into game two of the best of seven Eastern Conference quarterfinal series Sunday afternoon, again at Verizon Center. Indicating the national interest in Ovechkin (and lack of interest in watching Pittsburgh face a Canadian team), NBC network will televise Sunday's contest. WJFK/106.7 & WFED/1050 will again carry the Capitals' radio feed.----Relevant links: Washington Post, Washington Times

Alex Ovechkin looks to carry Caps all the way
2008-03-04 21:09:00
  You don't exactly have to be flirting with Mensa to figure out the Washington Capitals are destined to be an NHL powerhouse within a few years.Why wait?Ah, what the hell, let's see how they match up against the big boys, say, right now.Arguably the most dominant player on the planet today, the gap-tooth, mop-topped Alex Ovechkin, is locked up in D.C. for a least the next few U.S. presidential terms. Think about. When Ovechkin is up for his next contract, Jessica Alba will have already celebrated her 40th birthday. Yikes. Feeling a little older, are you?With budding stars Alexander Semin and Nicklas Backstrom lending support to OV, teams will probably want to stay out of the Capitals' path in the next couple of years months.Obviously, they are thinking playoffs in Washington - as in this year.Judging by the manner in which the Capitals steamrolled the Boston Bruins last night, who, incidentally, are one of the hottest teams in the league, Capitals fans aren't necessarily c...

Avenger Alex Ovechkin four scores for Capitals
2008-02-01 13:45:00
Tweaked by suffering a broken nose and a cut lip against the Montreal Canadiens, superstar player Alex Ovechkin reeked mighty vengeance with four goals and an assist including the sudden death overtime winner for the Washington Capitals' 5-4 victory. Ovechkin had suffered a cut below his eye from a high-stick two nights earlier, also against Montreal.The true defining ability of a sports superstar may be to ability to avenge himself on an opponent that makes him mad. By that definition, Avenger Alex clearly qualifies.Technorati: washington capitals, alex ovechkinRelevant links:Associated Press, Washington Post, On Frozen Blog

The Montreal Canadiens and the Washington Capitals were playing each other for the second time this week, this time at the Verizon centre in Washington.The Capitals' star player, Alexander Ovechkin, participated to every goal of his team in a 5-4 overtime victory. Ovechkin was hungry for some and scored four goals and added one assist.As for the Canadiens, they played catch up all evening long. Down 0-3 during the second period, Montreal managed to come back within a single goal before the period expired. Sergei Kostitsyn registered his 5th goal of the season followed by his brother Andrei Kostitsyn who scored with just one second left on the clock.Ovechkin gave another two-goal lead to his team halfway thru the third period with his third goal of the game but Guillaume Latendresse scored twice to tie up the game at 4-4. Latendresse's second goal of the game came with only 33 seconds to go to the game.But the star of the evening scored his fourth goal of the game during the overti...

Alex Ovechkin contract a no-brainer for Washington
2008-01-11 20:44:00
  Well, I guess those silly Alex Ovechkin rumors can now be put to bed, huh?The ink has dried on that historic 13-year, $124-million pact that gives Ovechkin long-term security and, if he so chooses, the ability to buy a piece of Greenland.So much for certain internet bloggers throwing everything against the wall to see what sticks. The largest contract in the history of the NHL just shows that maybe this guy should try to find another line of work.Ovechkin, on the other hand, won't have that problem.It was almost a no-brainer for Ted Leonsis and George McPhee. Both didn't want the talks to drag into July, forcing Ovechkin to arbitration to avoid the inevitable offer sheets that would come his way.Leonsis and McPhee will sleep well now.Really, is anyone surprised? Big bucks, no doubt, but you had to figure Ovechkin was going to cash in, perhaps like no one before him.Now the debate begins. Is anyone, let alone Ovechkin, worth that type of money, especially seeing how Sidney C...
Alexander Ovechkin hits the jackpot.
2008-01-11 12:59:00
The Washington Capitals silenced all the rumors about an eventual trade by signing a contract with their young 22-years old star player Alexander Ovechkin. Both parties agreed to a 13 year/$124 Millions deal.The contract will expire after the 2020-2021 season. Ovechkin will be 35 years old at the end of the deal.With such a contract, the Capitals send a message to their fans: We will not move the franchise anywhere and we will try to rebuild the franchise around Ovechkin. Some rumors about the departure of the team from Washington were circulating but are now cutted short. This contract is a strong commitment to the Washington fans who should come back to the Capitals games according to the team ownership.The contract represents the biggest amount of money awarded to a NHL player in a single contract. The Capitals owner, Ted Leonsis, said that he likes to take risks. And when came the time to sign a long deal, Ovechkin was worth it in Leonsis' mind.Alexander Ovechkin is glad to sta...

Fantasy Focus POTW ? Alex Ovechkin
2008-01-03 21:14:00
The Reaper paid a visit to the Ottawa Senators this past week.Only it was grinning Capital Alex Ovechkin wielding his scythe-like stick to take apart the Sens with a four-goal, one-assist performance in the Caps' 8-6 win on Dec. 29.Little wonder, then, that he is this week's Fantasy Focus Player of the Week.In four games between Dec. 26 and Jan. 1, he put away five goals and assisted on four others to boost his season totals to 30 goals and 20 assists in 40 games. He is second only to Ilya Kovalchuk (32) in overall goals.His production also propelled suddenly hot Washington to three wins and one overtime loss.While Ovechkin lit it up during the holidays, quite a few other NHLers also celebrated in style.

Alex Ovechkin should be NHL?s poster boy
2007-12-22 07:12:00
If there ever was a time the NHL needed a fun-loving, goofy spokesperson, that time is now.And Alex Ovechkin fills the bill.Just a couple days ago, a few Capitals players were looking for a way to pass the time. Team management set up a quick tour of the White House area of Washington on Segways, the two-wheeled motorized scooter.From all accounts, Ovechkin was the life of the party, yelling out to pedestrians, joking with a protestor at the White House, and off-roading before receiving a warning from police.It wasn't a planned PR stunt - it just fell into place. This is the sort of thing that happens when Ovechkin is around.He's a star blessed with talent and loads of personality.He gives a great sound bite, in direct contrast to the polished media-savvy truisms that come from current favorite son Sidney Crosby.Ovechkin just tells it as he sees it, and has great fun doing so.He is, my friends, a marketing dream.Part of the charm is his quirky Russian accent an...
