Ovechkin Video

My apologies if this has been widely circulated already. I'm not really a hockey fan, but this is ... sick.

Yeah. It's a crazy-good rookie class this year (probably because it was actually two rookie classes in one, but anyway).

Ovechkin, Crosby (who has been unbelievable in his own right), the Philly kids, the Sabres and Rangers goalies, and, my personal favourite...

Dion Phaneuf.

This HAS been widely circulated but thanks for sharing nonetheless.

I haven't seen it before. I'm also not a hockey fan at all. However Ovechkin is sick. I'm definitley going to have to watch some Capitals games next season to see him. Hopefully he wins ROY.

If Ovechkin doesn't win ROY, it will be one of the biggest steals of all-time in any sport. He's a more complete player than Crosby. Phaneuf is good though, and a Scott Stevens in the making. Lundqvist is a solid, sound goaltender, but above all, Ovechkin is still the cream of the crop.

Yea but it has been posted before but it never gets old.

Personally I think it shows how weak the NHL's marketing campaign is. A simple fan made this video and it gets me more excited about hockey than any NHL commercial. Just imagine what a league wide marketing campaign something like this would be featuring the different teams (Doesn?t have to be just highlighting players). It would have to be shorter than this probably about a 30-60 commercial but still.

Looking at that almost makes me wish teh Capitals made the playoffs hes able to do Amazing Things with a stick and a puck I have never seen before hes like Pitsol Pete on skates or something.

As for the Rookie Class 20 years from now people will be calling it the best ever in the NHL.

Not only that but he isn't just some guy who hangs out at the far blueline waiting but he can play defense as well and throw the body around. He's an all around player.

I posted this video here a while back.

Thanks for taking my glory Amare.

I guess you have to make your own thread to get responses on this site

All my bitterness aside, this video literally gave me goose bumps when I watched it. Not only due to Ovechkin's skills but how well it is set to the music.

Ovechkin is simply amazing. I still can't believe that goal he scored against the Coyotes. Ever time I watch that goal I shake my head in disbelief. It?s crazy to think that all of these highlights are from a single season, much less from his rookie season. I can't wait to see a highlight video going over a few years of his career.
