Thx Dash. That was an excellent find. I've always admired Ovechkin's ability on the ice. But, it was very revealing to hear him talk about the KHL and the youth leagues of Russia. Money seems to grease the wheels to get kids playing time over there. Which is unfortunate.

Thanks for the link Dash! Good read...I hope I can find the whole interview translated somewhere.


Ovechkin's "straightforward" style has always been odd to me as well.

Very honest interview. Good to hear it from him - his opinion matters in Russia.
