Alexander Ovechkin, future Hockey Hall of Famer, super star goal scorer for the Washington Capitals, and the only person with a chance of touching Wayne Gretzky's Goal Record is a two sport athlete now!?!

Well at least just for today, as Ovi signed a one day contract with the professional soccer (football) club FC Dynamo Moscow. In true Ovi fashion he found a way to score from a familiar spot for NHL fans.



Ovi also found away to continue his reputation of being an absolute tank by playing the body later in the game.




Are we in for another Summer of Ovi? Either way its always fun seeing one of the NHL's biggest personalities in the spotlight, but should this goal count towards his goal total while chasing the Great One?
