2/7, 12:53 PM - Alex Ovechkin talks to ESPN
Alex Ovechkin recently sat down and gave an interview with ESPN’s David Amber. It’s pretty good stuff. My personal favorite is:
Q: Knowing you’re staying in Washington for the long haul, it makes a lot of Caps fans feel confident that one day the team will win the Stanley Cup. Realistically, how long will that take?
A: As soon as possible. You never know. Look at the New York Giants winning the Super Bowl. No one thought that was going to happen. So you can’t just have a plan, you have to play out the season. That game was pretty cool. We watched the game together as a team. About half the guys were cheering for New England and the other half were cheering for New York. I was cheering for the Giants because no one believed in them. Maybe that will be like us, where we can surprise everyone with a championship.
