Alex Ovechkin gives homeless man his coat and hat

[afc wimbledon]

I think the point isn't that Ovechkin can afford to do this or that other players do more or less, the point is that the guy wandering through town saw a guy down on his luck and helped him out randomly just because he is a good guy, most people don't notice the homeless, we tune them out, Ovechkin has more of an excuse than most for going through a road trip paying little attention to anything more than his phone and the hotel its a nice story that shows he's a decent guy.

If every rich person gave to the homeless there wouldn't be any. I'm sure Daryl Katz has passed by some Edmonton homeless but I haven't heard a story about him helping one out

You have to be a struggling actress to get those offers from him

Even Ovechkin feels sorry for people living in Edmonton. Nice gesture by him. Hopefully one of these years they finally break thru in the playoffs.
