Ovechkin...Hockey's $124 Million Dollar Man


As reported yesterday, the Washington Capitals agreed to terms with Alex Ovechkin to the tune of $124 million over 13 years. Being a Washington Capitals fan and seeing him play night after night, he is in my opinion a once in a generation player that if he says healthy will prove to be worth the huge investment.


What this also shows me as a Caps fan is that Caps Management is willing to spend the money to build a Stanley Cup caliber team. Just wonder if the Cap fans will be willing to shell out the extra ducats needed to pay for this prize.
