Ovechkin Jokes, Gretzky Jabs, and the Next Chapter Looms

Alex Ovechkin is still keeping people guessing about his NHL future, and he is doing it with the kind of grin that tells you he enjoys the suspense. RMNB says he also took a little shot at Wayne Gretzky in a commercial, reminding everybody that even a so-called soft sell can come with a little scoreboard spice. That is classic Ovi - equal parts tease, timing, and a nod to the record book that still hangs over every conversation.
