One of my favourite things about the 2012-13 NHL lockout -- yes, I have more than one favourite thing about the 2012-13 NHL lockout, what of it? -- anyway, one of my favourite things about the 2012-13 NHL lockout was that Nicklas Bäckström and Alexander Ovechkin still played together during it, for Ovi's boyhood team Dynamo Moscow. It had a "yeah, Nick, why don't you come over to my house and we'll play some hockey until all the unpleasantness gets sorted out" kind of vibe, and it was nice! (Image Source)
sucks so much Eric O' Dell has left Dynamo. Not just because he played so well and had been on the team for a long time but because he was so important to the north americans who were coming over from the NHL. He was the one that helped everyone with advice, got them used to how things worked in Russia and the KHL and was always around for everyone if they needed. I hope someone else on Dynamo can be like that now and do what Eric did for them all. I am going to miss him a lot.
How it started How it is going on
I don't know a great deal about Valeri Vasilyev, other than being a defensive stud and the murder thing, but one of my favorite stories--
According to their friends and family, Valeri Kharlamov was best friends with a woman named Tatiana. They had a friends with benefits thing, but both thought the other was trash (affectionate) romantically. But Tatiana did want a romantic relationship with somebody sometime, so she was complaining about why she couldn't meet any men who weren't trash (derogatory), and Valeri K was like, "I do have access to A Lot of men", and they went hunting across the Moscow sports teams.
Tanya selected Valeri V out of the lineup. Valeri K, who was already good friends with Valeri V, was reportedly over the moon because they could now unite to form some kind of friendship-powered super mecha. Based on the fact that he was already good friends with Valeri K, Valeri V was used to hot people telling him what to do, and the two were soon married.
