Shadowing Yashin

from David Kolb at MSG Network,

To the majority of NHL players, the morning of a game is just a routine. Wake up, eat, come to the rink, stretch, hop on the ice for 20-45 minutes, then get back into street clothes and be on their way home, or to the hotel if they are on the road.
To Alexei Yashin, things are very different.
This past Tuesday morning I decided to tag along and bear witness to what the Isles Captain’s routine is like. On this day the Isles would host the Detroit Red Wings for the first time in four years.
So at 10:30 a.m., after Yashin did a bit of stretching, he laced up and hit the ice. Yashin worked on some skills but cut his ice time a bit short, for no apparent reason.

That’s not being superstitious, it’s being a prima donna.
