Ovechkin no longer untouchable
Views 54145 Comments 71 More Sharing ServicesShare on email08:30 AM ET 05.22 | Could Alex Ovechkin, who has nearly $90 million coming to him over the next nine years, be moved? Should anybody laugh off the suggestion? "I think it's possible," said one former NHL coach. "I think it would have to be a New York or maybe even a Montreal with the owner (Geoff Molson) there." I know the Capitals have so much tied up in Ovechkin; he's the face of their franchise. He's one of the most marketable hockey players in the world. It would be difficult to trade a guy with two Hart trophies, with already more than 300 goals, with nine years left on his contract, and get full value. But trading Ovechkin is not as farfetched today as it was a few years ago, though.
