Ovechkin: "Congratulation to Crosby."

No - I didn't forget the "s" in the title of this post. That's the way Alexander Ovechkin speaks - he's Russian! This was his answer when asked the following (from an article translated from the ALEX OVETJKIN blog):

Do you know that Sidney Crosby is the best hockey player of the year according to ESPN?
Congratulation to Crosby. He deserved it. (quickly answers Ovechkin.)

Wait, he didn't play a half of a season. And you got a bunch of trophies, including Hart Trophy for most valuable players in the NHL. Don't you think it is not fair that on ESPN version Crosby is the best?
He has taken Pittsburgh to the Stanley Cup finals. And in general I can not collect absolutely all of the awards. One shouldn't be so greedy.

WOW - it's surprising to hear him say that! Yes, Ovechkin, one shouldn't be so greedy - SO PASS THE DAMN PUCK EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE!!

And to replace the ESPY you didn't earn, I mean, win (and to bring a stop to all the whining coming your Capitals fans), this is a special award that I'm presenting to you:

NHL PUCK HOG OF THE YEAR
