Though this photo is probably years old, it was sent to us this morning, and a reader claims that the man on the far left, slumped over and looking … sleepy, is Washington Capitals star Alexander Ovechkin. Nice jeans, man. You know you’re somebody when you roll to a club (which is presumably where this was taken) in torn jeans and a tank top. For a solid preview of the Caps-Flyers series, the 700 Level scored an interview with hockey encyclopedia, Al Morganti.

In related hockey news, a thug on Ottawa Pittsburgh challenged a newspaper writer to a fight. “You wanted me to call you stupid to your face?,” Laraque said to me. “You’re stupid.” And later, Georges Laraque offers to fight the writer with “two hands tied behind my back, while on my knees.”
