Biography

All-Star winger who in 2013 became the eighth player in NHL history to win the Hart Trophy for league MVP three times. In 2016, he became the fifth-fastest player to score 500 career goals as well as the first Russian player to tally 500 career goals. He won his first Stanley Cup Championship with the Washington Capitals in 2018. The following off-season, Ovechkin was selected first overall in the 2004 NHL Entry Draft by the Washington Capitals. He had been projected as the first overall pick for nearly two years and had earned comparisons to Mario Lemieux. He was so highly regarded that the Florida Panthers attempted to draft him in the 2003 NHL Entry Draft in the ninth round, even though his birthday was two days after the cut-off (15 September 1985). Rick Dudley, the general manager of the Panthers, claimed the pick was legitimate, claiming that Ovechkin was old enough with leap years taken into consideration..

His older brother Sergei, who tragically died in a car accident when Alexander was 10, originally inspired Alexander’s passion for hockey. He married Anastasia Shubskaya in 2016 and he has two sons named Sergei and Ilya.

Ovechkin was born on September 17, 1985 in Moscow, the son of Soviet athletes. His mother, Tatyana Ovechkina, was a two-time Olympic gold medalist in basketball (1976, 1980). His father, Mikhail, was a football player. He had two older brothers, Sergei and Mikhail. His mother sensed her youngest son was destined for “sporting greatness”. “From birth, it was obvious,” she said. “In a child, it’s clear immediately. He was very active and walking and curious.” He was two years old when he first picked up a hockey stick. Whenever a hockey game came on television he would drop whatever he was doing, refusing to allow his parents to change the channel.
