It starts with Germany tonight, and then Russia tomorrow if the game goes well. And that showdown with Russia will be the biggest mid-week hockey game in a long, long time for Canadian fans and hockey fans the world over. It will be Sidney Crosby vs. Alexander Ovechkin with the winner going home, no medal, no parade, no national anthem, no glory, just a loss and disappointment. It is going to happen to someone, here’s hoping that it’s not Sidney. As a side note, if it does come down to Canada vs. Russia look out for Alex Ovechkin, this kid hates losing, and more than that, he hates losing to Sid. Determination and possibly domination will personified by Ovechkin himself. I love it.

But at the end of the day both moves boiled down to being the sales of the best player in their sports.
