I'm glad the Caps are able to keep him. No one in hockey is worth that much money, but out of all the players in the league, Ovechkin & Sidney Crosby should be able to basically write their own checks.
Had the Caps lost him in FA or had to trade him, it would have been the final nail in the coffin for hockey in DC.

are you a disgruntled Caps fan, or do you hate them so much you want to see them out the door?
Ovechkin gets what the market will bear and because he's the 2nd or 3rd best player in the league and an RFA after the season. Even though hockey is "at best the 4th major sport", they still take in over $2 BILLION a year as a league. That's still a lot of moolah.
