If i remember right, the person who had the BC connection was/is in the Caps front office... I know the kids on the team had a blast that day and said Ovie was hilarious to hang out with though

this or an assistant but there was someone Jerry knew that brought him here............and he loved the place

Yeah I don't think it was just an Ovechkin thing but a Capitals thing. They used BC's ice to practice before their game against the Bruins.

If I remember that right, Ovechkin fired off a shot that actually cracked the glass behind the net.

GM of the Caps--George McPhee. Believe he played for York at Bowling Green.

As for that Ice Jam video, were those two guys even hockey players?

Slightly off topic, but I seem to remember a year or two ago Alex Ovechkin going over to BC and skating (not sure if it was with the team or by himself), when the Capitals were in town to face the Bruins. Questions:
1. Does he have a relationship with Coach York?
2. Will he go over there on Wednesday or Thursday?

I also remember him meeting with the team. But I'm not sure if it was in practice or in the locker room.

I remember Ovie asked Jerry York if he could play in the Beanpot tourney for BC after he skated with them. Obviously Jerry told him he wasn't good enough and to stick with his Capitals.

They might never admit it but... Yes... They are hockey players.
