Ovie loves his Hockey Mom...

Check out this great article on NHL hockey moms including the Cap's own Alex Ovechkin's. Besides being the ultimate player and role model - he is a model son. Hey Alex, maybe you can teach my kids some lessons in eternal gratefulness for all that hockey parents (make that ALL parents) do for their kids! Just kidding - my twins are good boys. I think you never fully realize how much your parents sacrifice until you are nearer to adulthood. Despite my maddening juggling act, this hockey mom wouldn't want it any other way (though sometimes I threaten to put them in a bowling league on those mornings I just can't get out of bed for the rink at 5 a.m.)!

And leave it to Mike Milbury to diss his mom in the media - nice, real nice....

I know it's been said before, but Alex is a very special young man. His mom (and dad) must be kind of special too, for him to turn out so well.
