Alex Ovechkin scored twice yesterday in Ottawa, bringing his career goal total to 737. Since the start of the season, the "Tsar" has 12 points in six games, good for the best start of his career.
At 36 years old and with salt-and-pepper hair, the number 8 has no desire to slow down as he is on a mission. He wants to win a second Stanley Cup and he wants to pass Wayne Gretzky as the all-time leading scorer in NHL history.
Besides that, "The great 8" continues to take care of the people who admire him copiously, which is the case of Honlee Courtney, who has traveled about 3000 kilometers to see his idol play. Courtney is from Quebec, according to reports.
However, thanks to her poster and her request for a selfie, the young lady got even better as the living legend handed her his stick when the door to the visitors' locker room opened. WOW!
