I just say about Ovechkin what i have objectively seen from him and hockey skill/hockey sense just doesnt show especially at internatonal level very mediocre player. His stats in NHL are amazingly good for player who doesnt seem to have much skills. I mean obviously shot is good and especially he has like twister kind of shot's that go in from armpits it deceives goalies, but aside from that he is quite clumsy player> he doesnt have good motor Skills and balance is not good either his skating style is bit like ramping moose eventough he is explosive but technichal wise skating is not great level and puck controll/handling is not great eventough he has couple good moves like toe drag he has not bad hands but not good either compared to Patrick Kane he is stone hand. So he has some good qualities good shot he is big and quite strong and explosive, but he is quite fat and has bad stamina so he just floats around half shift and only concentrates on certain rushes where he goes 100% when there is offensive opportunity. He is playing long shifts and kind of resting and waiting while others defend and that's not just attitude think he weight's 110kg he is not capable to play those long shifts and play all in he has to be selective. He is too heavy to play 2 way game 100% only if he played short shifts like 20-30 seconds and overall playing time like 10 minutes per game it could be possible. So how he has these amounts of goals in NHL eventough he doesnt have special skills/talent overall? I think its that he was clearly at his best when he was young he matured early he was like 25 year olds body at 16 year old so he dominated his peers at under 18 level others were boys he was man. In Russian league he was not anythink special just another player, but then in NHL he was made like rock star kind of charachter in Washington given all freedoms and so on and it build from that. Much of his succees is WWE kind of enterntaiment stuff because NHL is like 50% sports 50% entertaiment. Ovechkin scores so many goals because fans want to see him score and come to see it. Had Ovechkin played his career in European hockey he would not be that kind of star at all in CCCP stylish enviroment he would be just regular player.
