Before Alex Ovechkin became the star left wing and captain of the Washington Capitals, drawing thousands of fans wherever he went
Before he won the Hart Memorial Trophy three times, and the Maurice ‘Rocket’ Richard trophy for most goals 5 times, with over 800 career goal points
Before he would smash Rookie records and be named Rookie of the Month and Offensive Player of the Month, only the third in history to receive both honors at the same time
Before Ovechkin was given the key to the city by Washington Mayor Adrian Fenty for being the first MVP in the area since Joe Theismann
Before he incurred the wrath of Don Cherry after he indulged in a blatant celebration of his 50th goal on the ice
Alexander Ovechkin grew up on the outskirts of Moscow in a family full of athletes. His olympian mother and pro soccer playing father set the foundations of a great leader and athlete but were too busy to invest time in their son’s hockey. It was his older brother Sergei that spotted real talent in his young brother and would make sure he did everything he could to encourage it. Proving his skill early on for the Moscow Dynamo’s Alex was set to move up a tier in their system in 2000 when tragedy struck. Sergei had died in a car accident, leaving Alex without his greatest supporter and mentor.
