More Cherry fallout

Even Canadians are getting tired of Cherry's "act"

Ovechkin responds to Don Cherry

"Don Cherry?" Ovechkin said. "What I can say? He's a funny guy, old guy. He likes old-fashioned hockey, so he don't like probably my celebrations. He said a lot of stuff about [Atlanta all-star Ilya] Kovalchuk and me, so he ...I don't know. I don't want to talk about him. He's not interesting to me. He can say whatever he want. I don't care about him."

When asked if he was angry about Cherry's comments, he added: "I just laughed when I saw his suits. He's funny. In hockey we need someone like that, someone who thinks I'm celebrating like soccer player. Maybe Canadians don't have soccer teams. Maybe he's jealous of Russia."

Good for Ovechkin. Even if he wasn't on the Caps I would be a big Ovechkin fan. Just the way he plays the game is so exciting. Every time he is on the ice there is a buzz that something special could happen. I personally think the NHL needs more players that bring excitement and enthusiasm to the game.

Big Win

Big win for medical marijuana. Good to see President Obama starting to hold up some campaign promises.

Sweet

Don Cherry is an idiot

Complaining because Ovechkin celebrates after goals. I guess he wants more boring people with no personality like Cindy Crosby.

Damn you NBC

My annual camping trip, Winterfest, is coming up next weekend and it seems as if the cards are stacked against me on this. First, I had to get out of working on the 21st. Not that big of a deal. But the Caps-Pens game that was scheduled for 3 on the 22nd has been moved to 12:30 due to NBC's flex scheduling. So this means I will have to leave winterfest early on sunday and miss the awesome breakfast that we cook up so that I can get to the game on time. I guess I cant really blame NBC for wanting to show the 2 best players in the game go at it on national tv. It will be interesting to see Ovechkin and Malkin play against each other now that it seems they have made up.
