Viral and unexpected scene at the Bell Centre involving Alex Ovechkin and Martin St-Louis

Well, today, just a few hours before the clash between the Habs and the Washington Capitals, we witnessed a special moment when St-Louis interrupted his traditional workout to have a hearty chat with none other than the great Alex Ovechkin.

A sight to behold.

Footage captured by Luc Gélinas, from RDS.

We love it! There's a lot of respect between the two men, but don't expect them to give each other any breaks tonight.

It promises to be exciting, especially since Ovechkin is currently going through a rare scoring drought. He'll be fired up tonight.
