Russia Today Interviews Alex Ovechkin

For a while now, it's been rather apparent that Russian hockey players tend to open up a bit more with the Russian press than with their North American counterparts. Case in point, this interview that Ovechkin did with Russia Today, the English language satellite television channel. Granted, you need to keep in mind that Russia Today is owned by the state operated news agency, RIA-Novost, but for soft interviews like this one you could probably discount that.

Thanks to Puck Daddy for the pointer, and for extracting one particularly hilarious screen capture.
