Larry Wigge gets in the Valentine's Day spirit with
this article on NHL.com praising the Caps' big gun, complete with quotes from current and former players. Apparently
Alex Ovechkin is "
Pavel Bure in
Mark Messier's body," "the face of the future" (whatever that means), "a combination of
Mike Bossy's scoring ability and Mark Messier's power, with a bit of
Kenny Linseman's speed thrown in," and "like the shark in Jaws," all at once.
But you knew all that already, didn't you?
