Alex Ovechkin and Mike Green are watching tonight’s game from the Press Box, instead of the Ice. Both players were held out of the contest against the Florida Panthers due to “Upper Body” injuries. The young pair’s presence in the box is creating quite a stir for the fans seated in front of them, as they continuously stand up, wave, and take pictures. Hopefully for the Capitals, these two can get back to creating a stir on the ice sometime soon. Additional photos after the jump.
Update #1 : Mike Green posted a photo of his own :
Update #2 : At the end of the 2nd period I happened to be walking down the hallway behind the pair of stars. Ovechkin pointed to a picture on the wall of himself celebrating a goal by jumping into Green’s arms, and the two shared a laugh together. Yeah, this is getting pretty close to stalking. No visible signs of shoulder straps or braces on either player, although Ovie does appear to be significantly broader then Green.
