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?

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??
