Karl Alzner Bets Against Russia, Pays the Price

One of the worst mornings ever. That jersey won't ever be worn by me again. Fml

Karl Alzner has been hating on everything Russian over the past week. First, he gave us low marks on RMNB’s “Caps Fans and Bad Habits” post. More recently, he bet against Team Russia in the WJC and the only Caps prospect in the tournament, Evgeny Kuznetsov. Why? So he could show allegiance to his Canadian homeland. Deplorable.

And that’s why the humility train made a quick stop at Kettler Capitals IcePlex. Alzner had to wear an ugly Russia jersey from the pits of Alex Ovechkin’s closet. Alzner wore the unsightly thing all practice long and described it as “the worst morning of my life.”

Neener, neener.

UPDATE 1:55PM: Alzner takes to the twitters to discuss his morning.

I think “Fml” means “favorite meal (for) lunch.” Not 100% on that.
