Frasi di Aleksandr Ovečkin

Aleksandr Michajlovič Ovečkin è un hockeista su ghiaccio russo che gioca come ala sinistra per i Washington Capitals, squadra della National Hockey League di cui è il capitano.

Prima di giocare in NHL Ovečkin giocò per la Dinamo Mosca nella Superliga dal 2001 al 2005. Ovečkin fu selezionato in prima posizione assoluta nell'NHL Entry Draft 2004, dopo aver già militato per tre anni nella Dinamo. A causa del lockout che portò alla cancellazione della stagione 2004-05 il giocatore rimase in Russia, per poi esordire in Nordamerica nella stagione 2005-06 conquistando il Calder Memorial Trophy come rookie dell'anno, grazie alle 52 reti e ai 54 assist per un totale di 106 punti, miglior risultato fra i giocatori all'esordio quell'anno.

Nella stagione 2007-08 guidò la NHL con 65 gol e 112 punti totali, vincendo il Maurice Richard e l'Art Ross Trophy. Vinse inoltre il Lester B. Pearson Award come miglior giocatore eletto dai membri della NHLPA e nell'Hart Memorial Trophy come MVP della lega. Fu il primo giocatore a vincere nello stesso anno i quattro trofei fin dalla creazione del Rocket Richard Trophy nel 1999. Nello stesso anno guidò la Russia alla vittoria del campionato mondiale, titolo vinto anche nel 2012 e nel 2014. Nel 2009 vinse nuovamente l'Hart Memorial Trophy, il Lester B. Pearson Award ed il Rocket Richard Trophy. Vinse il Ted Lindsay Award, nuova denominazione del Pearson Award, per la terza volta nel 2010, ricevendo inoltre per il quinto anno consecutivo la nomination per l'NHL First All-Star Team. Nel 2013 conquistò per la terza volta sia il Rocket Richard Trophy che l'Hart Memorial. Wikipedia
