TJ Oshie had an incredible outfit for a Morgan Wallen concert

TJ Oshie is an American hero and this is another reason why.

On Saturday night, Oshie attended the Morgan Wallen concert at Fedex Field with his wife Lauren and extended family. Nicklas Backstrom, John Carlson, and Nick Jensen joined the Oshies at the show with their significant others.

But I want to focus on Oshie’s lewk. Not only did Teej enthusiastically fit the vibe of the concert, but he made an iconic fashion statement that may or may not have been a partial tribute to Larry The Cable Guy and Woody from Toy Story.

Peter Laviolette talks wardrobe issues during first road trip with Capitals, open to ‘Belichick’ing it’

New Capitals head coach Peter Laviolette is clearly a Man Of Fashion, but a year removed from the game has Lavy not at peak packing form.

Monday, during an interview with 106.7 The Fan’s Sports Junkies, Lavy spoke about a recent mishap he had during the Capitals’ season-opening, four-game road trip, which had him steamed.

Connor McDavid wore a shoelace-belt to the NHL Awards. Here’s why you shouldn’t chirp him about it.

No, seriously. Stop chirping Connor McDavid about his fashion choices. Yes, he wore a suit to the NHL Awards and looked like he used a skate lace as a belt and tied it with a big floppy bow. And yes, his skinny tie looks like it may, in fact, be a belt. It quickly went viral on Twitter, Instagram, and Reddit.

Maybe McDavid is trolling all of us with his tied-belt and belt-tie. Maybe he’s just having fun with his fashion. Either way: that’s okay.

This Braden Holtby suit needs to be framed and put in a museum

“The bar has been set,” defenseman Nate Schmidt once said to the Washington Post about the Capitals’ fashion. “And the bar is, what is Holts wearing today?”

Braden Holtby takes his suit game very seriously, and Friday night, the former Vezina Trophy-winning goalie arrived at Capital One Arena like he was dressed for an old-timey movie premiere.

The Holtbeast turned heads and electrified Twitter timelines with this lavender-colored outfit for Hockey Fights Cancer Night.

The contrast between Holtby’s fashion and his teammates’ is particularly striking.

Alex Ovechkin and Brooks Laich are now chirping each other about fashion on Instagram

A year ago, former Capital Brooks Laich was not adept enough at Instagram to follow his lineys, Tom Wilson and Michael Latta.

Fast forward to today, Laich is now a regular poster who conducts Instagram live sessions. I don’t even do that. Laich also frequently communicates with ex-teammates in the comments. Friday night, Laich and his former captain, Alex Ovechkin, continued their lovefest.

Troy Brouwer on Alex Ovechkin: ‘He Has The Worst Style Ever’

Photo: Monumental Network

On Wednesday afternoon, NHLPA’s Chris Lomon published an article entitled Teammates Talk On Alex Ovechkin. There’s lots of great stuff about how Ovi is one of the greatest players in the world. But I want to point you to my favorite quote from teammate Troy Brouwer.

“The one thing I would love the hockey world to know about Alex is that he has the worst style ever,” Brouwer said of his captain. “He only has a few suits and he wears a tuxedo shirt with one of his suits.”

Oh, c’mon, Troy. There’s no way that’s tru…

Alex Ovechkin’s New Nike Clothing Line Sold at Caps Convention (Photos)

On June 13, 2008, Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin launched his clothing line with CCM. The lifestyle apparel, which featured a fancy number eight logo (that hinted at the Kremlin), was available for purchase online, in stores, and at Kettler Capitals Iceplex.

Three years later, Ovechkin cut ties with CCM and signed a six-year equipment deal with Bauer and an undisclosed meg endorsement deal with Nike. I assumed a new line of Ovechkin lifestyle clothing would be coming. For two years, it never did.

Alex Ovechkin’s On The Cover of ProSport Magazine

Last year as a 19-year-old, Washington Capitals prospect Evgeny Kuznetsov was chosen to be on the March cover of Russia’s most popular sports publication, ProSport Magazine. With the NHL lockout wreaking havoc to the 2012-13 season, another kinda-Capital will be gracing ProSport’s cover: two-time NHL MVP and high-fashion model Alex Ovechkin.

The December edition, which will be on sale from December 17 to January 20, 2013, features Ovi in some kind of black mumu sweater thing with the headline “Sasha, from the USA” and “Ovechkin in the KHL.” Now that’s a tease!

Thankfully, to whet our appetite until we get our hands on the latest issue, ProSport has released a somewhat erotic behind-the-scenes video of Ovechkin modeling for their photoshoot. And because I’d rather crop screenshots of Ovechkin shirtless in Photoshop than spend time with my girlfriend and ferrets, here’s some stills too!

After getting the green light from the Capitals organization on breakdown day, Alex Ovechkin left the United States Friday for the 2011 IIHF World Championships in Slovakia. Ovechkin, who had to endure an eight hour flight from DC to Vienna, was then driven by IIHF representatives to Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, just in time for a noon practice at Orange Stadium. He had almost no break.
