In case you missed it last night, Alex Ovechkin unofficially claimed the NHL’s heavyweight championship belt last tonight.

I get where Brind’Amour is coming from but… Svechnikov knew what he was getting into. If you’re willing to stand and trade rights with Ovechkin… you have to know that you’re going to get popped.
