On Instagram there’s plenty of content of Ovechkin and his family which includes his son Sergei possibly becoming a hockey star someday. Look at that form on the backhand shots!

Ovechkin is still one of the most popular players of the NHL and is a popular follow on social media. On the ice he’s shown no signs of slowing down. This past season he had 48 goals and 19 assists for 67 points. In his career he’s scored 706 goals.

Ovechkin had a viral photo with Ilya Kovalchuk that came out around Christmas time as the two was having a holiday beverage and it predicted the future as Kovalchuk came to the Capitals. It would be cool if Ovechkin had another moment like that.
