Ovechkin must be a joy to interview. Such a candid guy, and funny to boot. Seems genuinely empathetic about Malkin’s injury.

I love how the day after we post this, Cooke gets suspended. Karma’s a bitch!

@Ron, I’m serbian which I guess is a bit like Russian, anyways we have sayings here that can be translated a few different ways depending on who you ask.

LOVE it, RMNB. Thanks for making sure insights aren’t “lost in translation”.

Actually, Ovi said “that’s life.” Don’t know why they translated it as “such is life.” Whatever. The ballerinas comment is pricesless.

“What’s the alternative, skate around empty ice, like ballerinas?”

Got a laugh out of that one – love the guy!

“If Cooke was more precise, he would have shattered my knee.”

It’s a good thing for Caps fans everywhere that Cooke probably doesn’t read RMNB, since he’s probably kicking himself for his bad aim now…

Gotta love his personality. It’s starting to get much more professional but it still has that boyish livelyhood that we all love.
“AO – Boston should immediately sign Kulyash to a contract. And let Chara go to Omsk.”
Hahahahaha I’m afraid some journalist is going to take this too seriously and call a vendetta on Chara on Ovechkin’s behalf.
