Alex Ovechkin Sporting New Girlfriend
Washington Capitals captain, and NHL superstar, Alex Ovechkin is sporting around with a new girlfriend. Ovechkin sent out from his @ovi8 twitter account the following tweet yesterday.
Me and my girlfriend Maria….she is my queen!!!!
He sent that, along with the picture above.
I must say, I have to give Ovechkin props for reeling in such a beautiful woman. It has been confirmed that the beauty is Maria Kirilenko, tennis superstar and fellow Russian athlete. She is ranked 28th in the world for women’s tennis. The rumors had been swirling with Kirilenko practicing in Arlington, Virginia and having been spotted at a recent Capitals game.
Perhaps this is why the Capitals have been in quite the slump of late? I don’t think anyone but Ovechkin can be sure if his new squeeze is resulting in the down season. Ovi has only 18 points in 23 games so far this season, while the Capitals have gone 12-10-1, and Bruce Boudreau has recently been fired by the organization.
This could also spark the fire in Ovechkin’s game and get him back on track if Kirilenko hasn’t been the reason of his slump. Maybe he was preoccupied with how to ask her out or was nervous about it and his head wasn’t in the game. I don’t know, but the sports world will see soon how this affects his play. Me personally, I’m hoping for the better.
I wish both Ovechkin and Kirilenko the best of luck in their new relationship.
