Favorite Athletes
Alexander Ovechkin, Henrik Zetterberg, a healthy Peter Forsberg, Henrik Lundqvist, Evgeni Malkin, Dion Phaneuf, Nicklas Bäckström, Alexander Semin, Marian Hossa, Rick Nash, Carey Price, Sergei Fedorov, Alexei Kovalev. I like that Grabovski kid in Toronto also. And I recently discovered Mikkel Boedker's skills. My first favorite hockey player was Borje Salming. Then it was Gretzky, Pavel Bure, Forsberg and now Ovechkin.

Favorite Sports Teams
The Washington Capitals. My top three after that are Vancouver Canucks, Montreal Canadiens and New York Rangers. Washington is relatively new for me, which cooincides with drafting Bäckström in 2006. I'll watch anyone play anyone, though. I'm a hockey fan, not a homer fan. I think Chicago is gonna be fun to watch for the next few years also.

Favorite Coaches
Bruce Boudreau, Mike Babcock, Todd McClelland (the last two are Saskatchewan boys!!)

All-Time Sports Moment
too many hockey related to count - I loved Sweden over Finland in the 2006 Olympics, and more recently, Russia over Canada (in OT!) for the World Championship Gold in 2008. Ovechkin digging out the loonie from centre ice was classic!!
-
Most Memorable Game Attended
My first Oilers game in 1999. Oilers won 4 - 2...I recently took a trip to watch the Caps in Washington, and I still remember the taste of the nachos. We lost 2 - 1 to the Leafs.

Most Unbreakable Sports Record
Gordie Howe -- and Gretzky's 2857

apples and oranges...a 'too skilled for words' forward and an offensive dman cut down in his prime...come on!!
-
Pele or Maradona?
don't watch the footy...only player I'm familiar with is Freddie Ljungberg.

Federer or Sampras?
Rafa Nadal is my fav tennis guy. But Federer is fun to watch also. So was Sampras. I dunno...
-
Tiger or Nicklaus?
I would have said Tiger, but his comments about hockey last season knocked him down a notch on my list.
-
Petty or Earnhardt?
I'm making the assumption that this is nascar, which I don't follow...

Schumacher or Senna?
formula one I think this is. Not my thing.
-
ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-12 or SEC?
Sorry...all I care about is NHL and CHL hockey...I AM CANADIAN!! P.S. If you've read this much of my profile, you deserve to know that I'm a girl...chick...woman, whatever.
