As we reported a few days ago, Washington Capitals forward Alex Ovechkin made some interesting comments about the crowd in Montreal.
When asked about it, Ovechkin didn't seem very impressed by the atmosphere at the Bell Centre and in Montreal, mentioning that it was either better or similar in Washington.
In short, it was a special kind of answer, especially considering several Capitals players had just praised the absolutely incredible and electric atmosphere in Montreal.
Ovechkin, likely playing the veteran card, was not impressed at all.
The Montreal Canadiens respond to Alex Ovechkin's comments
It went mostly unnoticed because there have been so many stories to cover in the past few hours, but the Montreal Canadiens organization did in fact post a short message, no doubt aimed at Alex Ovechkin.
"We can confirm, it's not the same as Washington."

A well-played little jab!
Many journalists also shared the post, mentioning that the Canadiens organization is in top form for posting such clever little messages.
No, it's not the same in Washington.
All in all, I really liked it!
Now let's hope we can get another game back in Montreal, and that Martin St-Louis' squad finds a way to win Game 5 tomorrow night, live from Capital One Arena in Washington.
It's shaping up to be exciting!
I can't wait to see, after going back to Washington following two games at the Bell Centre, if Ovechkin will still think "it's the same."
