Neon_Matrix Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 I found this on some other site and I gotta say, when Ovechkin wants to play well, well, I think this video can put into words what I cannot.http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=39...341&q=alexanderDo enjoy, but please don't compare him to Gretzky, Lemieux or even Messier. Maybe a Gordie Howe, just because it seems he can pull of a Gordie Howe hat trick better then most other players out there. I've never seen GLM ever lay someone out at centre ice.You hear that Crosby? Ovechkin is a much better player then ya right now and maybe you might be looking up at him for both of your careers.

Shumway Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Ovechkin is by far a better player overall than Crosby. The kid can literally do it all. I have to go to see him play in person sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spyboy1 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Awesome. Too bad he's killing me in Fantasy Hockey this year so I can't enjoy it more! Thanks for posting that link. Very cool.JeffB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon_Matrix Posted March 3, 2006 Author Share Posted March 3, 2006 I saw him play in person he had an alright game nothing out of this world. He's a Jagr. He can be REALLLL lazy, but when he wants to play, he can be pretty amazing. 2 Years ago at the World Juniors, the Russians didn't fare too well and people blamed Ovechkin because they believed he would help them to a win, but when it was over, he said how he wasn't at his top because he didn't feel motivated enough to play his best. Ah well, his short comings aside, hes still pretty good when he wants to be, its a shame he cant be amazing all the time like real hockey players.

T-man3 Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 He is amazing, I love it when he levels people or slams them in to the wall. My favorite part was when he shot it falling down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paynomind Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Prety well done video. Guy is good for a rookie. He's good for anybody.The Caps look stupid in their jerseys that dont match in the slightest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityOfWalrus Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 its a shame he cant be amazing all the time like real hockey players. yes cause gretzky never had an off game or lemieux. Where have you read that he only plays when he wants to? real hockey players have thier off games and good games. No one can be amazing every single game in and out. not even your special maple leafs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryguy3285 Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Here is a scary thought.......imagine what ovechkin would be like if he had some talent around him.........i personally think that if he had somebody like a Glenn Anderson, a Paul Coffey, a Jari Kurri, or a Mark Messier then this kid could be unreal........i think thats why ovechkin is a much better player then crosby becasue look what he is doing with the lack of tallent that is around him.........I have seen a lot of hockey and this guy is amazing flat out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
