Washington Capitals joked about Florida on their social networks about the possible career of their 4-year-old son, Alexander Ovechkin, in the National Hockey League (NHL).
“Hey Florida, just a reminder: Ovi Jr is not a draft yet,” Washington Capitals wrote on social media.
Recall that in 2003 Florida tried to get Alexander Ovechkin in the draft. At the time, the Russian was not eligible for the draft, but the Florida general manager tried to insist on the inclusion of the Russians. As a result, in 2004, the Capitals dragged Ovechkin to number one.
On February 4, Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby, Alexander and Sergei Ovechkin won the competition in the most spectacular shootout in the NHL All-Star Game. Three of them fired a bullet, the decisive shot was made by 4-year-old Ovechkin.
Ovechkin, 37, has recorded 32 goals and 22 assists in 52 games this season. During his career in the NHL, Rus scored 812 goals and took second place in the list of snipers in history.
