MOSCOW — Alex Ovechkin is bringing the Stanley Cup to the World Cup.
Fresh off winning the NHL title, the Washington Capitals forward is continuing his summer-long victory tour by taking the trophy to Moscow on Saturday, where it will be exhibited at a “fan fest” public viewing site ahead of Russia’s quarterfinal game against Croatia.
Ovechkin wrote on Instagram, “Dear friends, I’ll be happy to see everyone who wants to take a photo with the Stanley Cup.”
Дорогие друзья, буду рад видеть всех желающих сфотографироваться с Кубком Стэнли! До встречи!❤️😀
