Gonna be in New York City next week?
To help ring in the new NHL season, Caps winger Alex Ovechkin will be personally ringing up a limited number of fans who pre-order NHL 2K10 (of which he’s the cover child) at the NHL Powered by Reebok Store on Sixth Ave in downtown NYC from 4-6 pm. He’ll also be playing against contest winners on the Wii version of the game.
Best part? Ovie will arrive at the store riding a Zamboni down Sixth Ave with a police escort. No, really.
Having lived in the DC area for ten years, Ben still loves to wander the city with his wife, shooting lots of photos and exploring all the latest exhibits and galleries. A certified hockey fanatic, he spends some time debating the Washington Capitals club with friends – but everyone knows of his three decade love affair with the Pittsburgh Penguins.
A professional writer, gamer, photographer, and Lego enthusiast, Ben remains captivated by DC and doesn’t plan on leaving any time soon.
…the obvious question to follow being ‘why New York and not here in DC?’
Because the “NHL Powered by Reebok Store” (oh how I loathe that name) doesn’t have a branch here in DC? :)
If the Caps win the Cup in the next decade, I demand Ovie lead the parade on a Zamboni.
