Athletistic / Hockey. During the NHL regular season game between the New York Islanders and the Washington Capitals, a funny incident occurred. A young Moscow supporter present in the stands displayed a poster addressed to Washington captain Alexander Ovechkin.
A fan suggested the Russian hockey player trade his tooth for a stick. “Ovi, we have the same smile. We exchange a tooth for your hockey stick? You are the best! Forever!” – it was written on the poster. At the moment, it is unknown if Alexandre gave his stick to the creative fan.
