Alexander Ovechkin Would Prefer Not To Play Defense
This is Derek Stepan's goal from the third period of last night's Capitals-Rangers game, which put the Rangers up 4-2. It's an impressive play, but not nearly as impressive as Alexander Ovechkin's brief cameo.
Keep your eye on the bottom right hand corner of the screen, and look for the giant Russian guy who comes slowly drifting into the frame. That's Ovechkin, giving zero fucks about defense and looking like the world's saddest man. You really have to admire his ability to look that apathetic in the middle of a playoff hockey game.
The play looks great in GIF form, too:
