BREAKING: Alex Ovechkin reveals CRUCIAL details in post season interview.

Time for the Czar to face the music following Caps' early elimination

Who would've imagined that we would be here today? The Sens reaching the Eastern conference finals and the Caps facing the music following another early elimination?

It was also time for the Czar to meet the press following Caps' early elimination and he revealed quite a few crucial details regarding his health condition.

Ovechkin says he suffered a knee injury that happened on Kadri's hit. Other hamstring injury happened late in Game 3 vs. Penguins. However, no surgery required for either.

The Washington Capitals captain also said he's going to Miami for a few days, then will see docs here.

Russian hockey reporter Igor Eronko of Sports-Express was reporting yesterday that he has been informed by the head coach of the Russian national team that Ovechkin was dealing with not one but two injuries in the postseason.

The reveal came after Ovechkin declined to play at the IIHF World Championship, and given Ovechkin's love of playing for Russia it's no surprise he is injured if he is indeed sitting out the tournament.
