Time is flying by. Monday, Alex Ovechkin’s son Sergei celebrated his six-month birthday. Thousands of miles away on the Capitals West Coast road trip, Papa Ovi had a solution so he could still be part of the birthday celebration.
The Dadvechkin sent Mom a flower arrangement which included blue hydrangeas and white roses. He also sent his son a bear made out of flowers.
Wednesday night, just before returning to practice from their All Star-slash-bye-week break, Caps stars Alex Ovechkin and Dmitry Orlov, together with their wives, Nastya and Varvara, and Tatyana Ovechkina attended a concert at The George Washington University’s Lisner Auditorium by famed Russian singer-songwriter Aleksandr Rozenbaum.
Rozenbaum was a longtime friend of Nastya’s mother, Russian actress and director Vera Glagoleva, who died in August 2017 at the age of 61.
