Around SBN: Raiders' GM Begins The Purge

"As President-elect Barack Obama and his family settle into Washington ahead of his inauguration, they'll undoubtedly go through a period of adjustment. The girls will need to get used to a new school, the whole family will learn soon enough about the city's muggy summers, and Obama himself may need to become a hockey fan because the other local sports teams currently range from mediocre to stupendously bad."

I don’t even want to think about the security in VC if Obama sat with Ted.

Yeah, I welcome President Obama as a fan…but would prefer if he enjoys the game from the comfort of his own (White) House.

Or the media circus.

Or Wolves...

Need him to nail down his allegiances.

Then again, being born in Hawaii, all bets are off.

You're asking for a miracle :)

A politician nailing down his allegiances? You’re funny :)

That’s a sucker’s bet, dude.

The President, in the VC, watching a Capitals game in June, and (most) all will be right with the world.

He’s already mentioned that he’d like to see a college football playoff…maybe he’ll go to a game extend his sports-related platform and declare that he’d like to see better ice at VC!

OT Hockey 2/8
Evgeny Kuznetsov hams it up as he joins the Russia men's national team for the "Sweden Games" leg of the Euro Hockey Tour in Helsinki, Finland.

There's a bit of controversy as their game against the Finns is scheduled to be played in Helsinki's outdoor Olympic Stadium.   Where the daytime temps are currently approximately minus-15 degrees Celsius, with periodic heavy snow.

This interview with head coach Zinetula Bilyaletdinov is fascinating, as he frets about the weather and especially when the reporters press him on the leaked reports that Kuznetsov will be centering the top line for Team Russia, just weeks after his 20th birthday.
