Karl Alzner


Future Norris Trophy winner for the Capitals. Sharp eyes will pick up on the fact that there's no number on his jersey. If anyone knows whether he's even got a number assigned, drop me an email or something.

Capitals Art ( But NOT mine!)


I repeat,this is from a REAL artist! I found it over at the Caps Attic ( www.caps-attic.blogspot.com ). I spent a couple of hours looking at all the stuff the blog
owner, Glenn, has at his site. Lots of Ron Weber snippets too!

It's a piece done by Thomas Needham, by the way. He has a bunch of good sports paintings. ( www.thomasneedham.com )

Alexander Ovechkin image on shirt or mug


Now that it's the offseason, I've touched up the Alex caricature (longer hair, fuzzy chin), and made it available on a shirt or a mug. I've searched and searched, but I don't see anyone offering those old-style caricatures anywhere of Ovechkin or any other NHL star, for that matter. Maybe if I contact Gary Bettman...

There's no actual Capitals logo explicitly, and no implied endorsement, so I doubt any government officials will be kicking my office door in anytime soon. :oD

So get one for (insert politically correct or incorrect holiday of choice here) and if anyone says "Hey, where the hell did you get THAT??" make sure you tell 'em that you got it from Paul Nichols.
