When you see how many garbage players were taken in front of him it makes you shake your head.
They should aim for the mesh part of the goal.That’s like the 5th post the Knights have hit tonite

He's never been good along the boards. And you're right, 33 year old Ovechkin isn't as fast as 20 year old Ovechkin... more news at 11. He looks faster and more agile this year than he did last year or even 5-6 years ago.He has literally become a slower player even at his full speed. He just looks very heavy. He’s not exactly tough along the boards consistently either.
Not an insult, just an observation
I love him. It seems some players have to adjust to him first, cuz he passes when they don’t expect it... but the fact he’ll pass to anyone any time and pull it off makes him one of my favorite passersWow. Watching Kuznetsov play is just such a treat. Does everything right.
Gives me nightmares. We took Jack f***ing Campbell.

This is a textbook case of when the rule is useful, though. This wasn't a ticky-tack offense that made no difference to the outcome of the play, this was a situation in which an off-sides player shielded the puck from the defense. Without the offsides player, there's a decent chance the zone entry is denied.God I hate that stupid ****ing rule.
Agree 100%. Was never insulting his game necessarily. All I care about is results, and he gets them. I do appreciate very much his tougher defensive play though. He makes some legit big time defensive plays sometimes that he never would have made in years pasthe's my fav all time and this is pretty obvious, however the most impressive part is that even with all that considered, he still scores at ridiculous paces
Didn’t say he floats 100% of the time.... but he doesn’t skate as hard as often as in the past... there’s a reason Tom Wilson is on his line, and that he doesn’t score a ton of individual efforts as he used to.
I’m an Ovechkin fan, and it’s still working for him so I don’t really care. But there is a noticeable difference in his skating between now and 5 years ago, and 10 years ago.
Arizona scored a goal !
