Huge news broke this morning about Capitals captain Alexander Ovechkin!
According to Rick Westhead of TSN, the Ukrainian Canadian Congress doesn't want Ovechkin in Canada:
''Ovechkin has never condemned Russia's genocidal war and continues to post a photo of himself with Putin on his social media account.''
The Ukrainian Canadian Congress has asked the Canadian govt to refuse Alex Ovechkin permission to travel to Canada.
Of course, this is due to Ovie's long-standing friendship with Russian President Vladimir Putin, and the ongoing invasion of the Ukraine.
At the same time, Ovechkin has also publicly shared his distaste of the war.
