aerin frankel and alina müller epic friendship clip

Just being able to see her on that stage will be very special and everything I wish for her, and just gonna be really cool to share that moment and be there with her too. And just taking that moment in and know that we are both at the Olympic stage together after being 18 years old at Northeastern, dreaming about that one day. Just unbelievably grateful for our friendship. (…) Obviously once I'm on the other side of her, it's just a hockey game and I try my best to help our team put the puck in the net. But obviously I'm-- I would rather be on the team with her.

Kirill Kaprizov is here to blow bubbles

I see that Wild fans are once again Going Through it, and I can never give Rusko enough props, so I wanted to mention a little context to these photos. Kaprizov is smiling like that because the photographer has known him since he was about 15, and she loves to sneak up on him (she titled these photos “The Hunt for Bubbles”).

I think she’s a really brilliant sports photographer; her work is silly, often deeply intimate and focused on players’ hands, bare skin, smiles, or exhausted postures, and artfully composed.

(That last, if it isn’t clear, is Kaprizov learning to fly)
