It’s a shame because I have liked Ovechkin’s personality. That commercial with Backstrom is as funny a hockey commercial as I’ve seen (though TBF Ovie’s wife makes it work).
I can see how he has trouble walking anything from the past back now. I wouldn’t expect him to do much. But having the pic still up etc ain’t great.
This “no war” statement is something I’ve seen from a number of Russian athletes. I think they use it because it isn’t anti-Putin and falls in line with his characterization of the invasion.
