Here are your Puck Headlines: a glorious collection of news and views collected from the greatest blogosphere in sports and the few, the proud, the mainstream hockey media.

• Alex Ovechkin models Team Russia's Olympic duds. They seem to allow the players an impressive range of motion, because Ovechkin deftly dodged a question about Russia's anti-gay laws during the reveal. “Our job is to play," he said, "I’d rather speak about that.” [RMNB]

• EA Sports has begun a countdown of their top 50 player ratings for NHL 14. The first shock: Drew Doughty is 46th with a rating of 88. That's too low, first of all, but the added shock comes when you realize Dustin Byfuglien is 47th with the same rating. [NHL 14]

• Before the Capitals signed Mikhail Grabovski, they asked Brian Burke what he thought of the former Leafs' centre. He gave a good reference. [Capitals Insider]

• Hey Luongo, are you happy? "“I’m happy to be playing and being a starter, that’s what matters for now, and that’s what I’m focused on. At the end of the day, that’s all you really need, right?” So, no. [Vancouver Sun]

• Alex Radulov has been stripped of his CSKA captaincy because he had "undisclosed problems with discipline". Whoa, since when? [RIA Novosti]

• What we know and what we don't about the Minnesota Wild's soon-to-be-unveiled new jerseys. [First Round Bust]

• The Cape Breton Screaming Eagles are planning to trade their first overall pick, Nicolas Roy, mainly because he refuses to even visit them. Seems like a good course of action. [Buzzing the Net]

• Taylor Hall is ready for elite status, fantasy-wise. And maybe in the regular way too. [Dobber Hockey]
