i recommend Barbados this time of year. the drinking water is some of the best stuff in the world since its naturally filtered through limestone and coral aquifers…great for the morning after rum runners with little umbrellas

Fair or not, Ovechkin will probably be picked. The All-Star game is about parading the biggest names of the sport in front of the media for a couple days in an effort to build popularity for the sport. While Ovechkin might be struggling at the moment, hes still one of the biggest names in the NHL… and I can’t see the league leaving him out of the AS game.

Or he could follow the Koharsky rule and have another donut.

The All-Star is nothing more than a dog and pony show… If I was Ovechkin, I’d go on vacation, rest myself, and come back recharged for the second half of the season.
