Hockey, television and beer.
A perfect line combination, no? With so much Olympic hockey to watch and commentators bringing up the same facts over and over, perhaps a drinking game will keep you from moving your fingers over the mute button. And since most Caps fans are caught up in Alex Oveckhin's exploits with Team Russia, what better a team to highlight?
Without further delay, the Team Russia drinking game. Of course in the great tradition of drinking games, feel free to add your own rules...
Drink...
...every time the announcers mention Alexander Ovechkin plays for the Capitals.
...every time the announcers make a comment about Alex Semin playing with Ovechkin in Washington.
...every time the commentators mention the incredible chemistry Ovechkin and Semin have.
...every time Semin falls down.
...every time Sidney Crosby is brought up during a Team Russia game.
...every time the heated Malkin vs. Ovechkin rivalry is brought up.
...every time the announcers talk about Alexander Radulov leaving the Nashville Predators for the KHL.
...every time the announcers mention a current KHL player used to play for an NHL team.
...every time a current Capital or former Capital scores (Ovechkin, Semin, Kozlov, Fedorov). Double if it's on the power play. Finish it if it's on the penalty kill.
...every time the Miracle on Ice game is mentioned during a Team Russia game. Double if Vladislav Tretiak's name is brought up.
...every time the Russians' current performance is compared to the Canadians' last performance.
*INTERMISSION DRINKS*
...every time Mike Milbury talks about Ovechkin. Double if he mentions Crosby in his analysis.
...every time Jeremy Roenick gives Milbury a disgusted look. Double if they get into an argument. Finish your six-pack if they drop the gloves.
...every time one of the commentators brings up a player not involved in the current game. Double if it's Mike Richards.
...every time NBC shows a "How to Train Your Dragon" commercial.
...every time you hear Morgan Freeman's voice. Double if it's not in a VISA ad.
Feel free to add your own rules in the comments below.
