Ovechkin has the size and reach advantage, but Crosby has Lemieux in his corner. Ovechkin in 3.

Alex Ovechkin is pretty good. It is just a shame he plays for the Caps. Also, someone should tell him to wait for the puck to go over the line before he celebrates his goal, or no goal, as the case may be.
