There are things in life that are bigger than hockey and it seems like Washington Capitals super Alex Ovechkin has found of them.
On Sunday the Russian forward took to social media to share a major announcement with all his fans, and while the message was in Russian, the picture that accompanied that message left little doubt as to what Ovechkin was celebrating.
The picture features two hands, presumably one belonging to Ovechkin, and the other belonging to his new wife, long-time girlfriend Anastasia Shubskaya, a professional model.

We have learned that the message translates to "This is happiness," and we of course wish the happy newlyweds all the best in their future together.
