I'm not supporting/condoning Ovechkin's support of Putin, but no-one here knows the actual circumstances around his relationship with Putin. It's easy for us to say "oh Panarin disavowed Putin, Ovi should do it too!" but none of us knows what the reality actually is here and whether or not Ovi is supporting Putin because he actually believes it or because Putin has the power to decide whether or not Ovi's family back in Russia lives a wonderful life or a horrifying one.
Possible that Ovi actually loves Putin and supports him of his own free will and possible that he does it because he has to for his family's best interests and safety.
