Mighty Dodo in celeb relationship?

As official media partner to the Pinelands Mighty Dodos, Feverpitcher is privy to a great deal of inside info on hockey’s most celebrated collective. It was here that you first read about Big Lurker Fleming been seen out on the town with Cape Town model Tarryn Stevens, and that news of Mike Dabrowski’s supposed liaison with Serena Williams initially broke (no official comment from Dobs or Serena, but where there’s smoke…).

And now, news of another romance that’s allegedly catching fire. Mighty Dodo Petal Le Grange, the youngest member of hockey’s superstar squad, was in the stands at the Old Mutual Two Oceans Marathon, and has apparently since been seen in a number of high-profile nightclub VIP rooms with one Elena Nurgalieva (above), star Russian long-distance runner. Are they really an item? Or has scurillous tabloid talk simply run out of hand? Always a debate when the Mighty Dodos are involved; Feverpitcher will keep you posted.
