Alex Ovechkin sighted in Washington and was later skating with 9 other members of the Capitals. Alex flew in from Russia after he heard the NHL Lockout was ending, that's encouraging. Alex was all smiles and soon to be married as he gave a ring to tennis player Maria Kirilenko over the Christmas break in Moscow. He also played some 30 games with his hometown team in Russia. Some say that puts him in better shape for a short season then most of his peers. So we may end up with a hockey season after all be it only 48 games. Alex says that could be exciting too kind of like playing 48 playoff games. All this will happen only if the NHL Owners approve the labor agreement today.
