|

Just a quck question out of curiosity. In pics we can see him wearing a blue wristband. Does anyone know waht wristband it is? Caps? Something im not sure of?
I know its a silly question but im just curious. Anyone got an answer?
Also i'd like to see im excited to be a part of this board. Ontario is full of Ovechkin fans, and i am just one of them. |

I always wondered about his wristbands too. When he was here in Tampa and I saw him up close, he wore a yellow one as well. Perhaps a Lance Armstrong "Livestrong" one? _________________ Alex Is Amazing!! |

Olaf Kolzig(Cap's golman)is founder of the Carson Kolzig Foundation named after his son and it is active in supporting Athletes Against Autism so he made a charitative nodation,blue wristband is a symbol.I read it in Alex's interview  _________________ Verba volant-scripta manent

I think I've heard of Kolzig doing that. That's really cool that he's doing something to give back and help people with autism.  |

Kolzig isn't the only one in that foundation hes one of the three founders though, Byron Dafoe and Scott Mellanby all have Autistic kids. The web site is http://www.athletesagainstautism.org/
not sure about the bracelets though, blue is suppose to mean colon cancer??  _________________
