Alex Ovechkin Somehow Named Twice To NHL All-Star Team
The Washington Capitals' Alex Ovechkin is a great hockey player, this GIF aside. He led the league in goals and willed his mostly bad team to the playoffs.

This Should Answer The Question Of Whether Alex Ovechkin Regrets Skipping The All-Star Game
Back when it looked like Alexander Ovechkin might not be named to the All-Star Game, he told a reporter he wouldn't be disappointed "because I'm going to go straight up to vacation somewhere."
