More than a few hours before the game of this evening. A few hours before seeing the Great Alex.... A thing is certain: it does not matter what he will do this evening, he will still receive criticisms... Alexei Kovalev... I always defended him... and even in the storm, I would be always behind him.
Alex must hold the title of the player most badly quoted, most badly considered, most misunderstood, more under estimated in the history of the Canadiens of Montreal. But even in the adversity, he stands up, giving all he can for his team.
Some seems to forget that before being a hockey player, before being a celebrity, he is a human being...

There is the Alex of the media: a man supposedly cold, egocentric person, who don’t care about anything.
And there is the Alex I met last Saturday: a man human, sensitive, generous, amusing. A devoted man, with a heart big like the world. Yes, it is this Alex I know...

A man who took the time to call me at home to invite me in Montreal, after being moved by my letter.
A man who organized me a day of dream, a man who took care of me with an incredible kindness.
A man who gave me such beautiful surprises for my collection.
A man who invited us, my family and me, in his Skybox for sick children.
A man who wanted to play a great game and to count a goal for me.
A man who during the game, into full "concentration", thought of keeping me the puck.
A man who spoke about my history with pride with the journalists.
A man who took time to listen to me, speak to me, spend time with me.
A man who took the time to present us at his nice wife.
A man who spoke to me sincerely about his philosophy of life, his dreams.
A man who encouraged me... who said to me to believe in me and my dreams.
An affectionate man, who took me in his arms before my departure.
A man who did everything to make me happy, a man who took my happiness between his hands.

It is him the true Alex, the Great Alex.... a man not like others, a man right, proud, authentic.
With an exceptional human warmth and a moving kindness. And with such a charisma... When Alex speaks to you, it is as if all ceased existing around you. He concentrates on you, he is devoted for you. He has a special glance, which looks at your heart directly.

I would never forget what he did for me... For all of those who judge him, without knowing it, I hope that my « day of dream » will show to the whole world the true Alex... the artist on the ice... the man of exception... my Hero for life...

Note : I took some pictures with Alex's wife, with some employees of the Centre Bell and some reporters, but I didn't put it on this website, because maybe they want to keep their private life.
