Brooks Laich = Ladies Man

I'd heard about this video, which appeared on the big screen in the last week or two during a Caps game. Now, I watched it. Various members of the Washington hockey club are asked to identify the biggest ladies man in their midst. Almost unanimously, they seize upon Brooks Laich. I think the producers were feeding them lines.

For more, check out women discussing Laich's personal life and including him on lists of good-looking NHL players.

In other Caps news, I'll go to my first game (of this season!) tomorrow night in honor of Dollar Dogs, a promotion that will include a hot dog eating contest during the second intermission. Yes, I have my priorities in order.

In less whimsical Caps news, some Caps bloggers were inspired by this tear-jerker yesterday and are attempting to raise money for the Wilson hockey program. They already have some plans in the works, but need a downtown venue to host their fundraiser. E-mail me with any leads.

OV with teeth, huh?
Glad to see you continuously writing about the various teams in the area. Keep up the good work, Bogman.

They did this last year too. Clymer seemed to be the consensus then.

Brashear's French Canadian accent? That's kinda funny, since he's from Indiana.
Maybe he has a trace of one from playing in Montreal.

I had a feeling Ovechkin would say something like that. Hilarious

Whiter Mage - Funny, my hockey friends and I just had the same discussion about Brash's French Canadian accent. He IS from Bedford, IN., but moved to Quebec at 16 to play QAAA for Sainte Foy & stayed in Canada for 13 years.
