Alex Ovechkin was apparently at a Russian soccer game recently between a club called Anzhi and defending league champions Zenit Saint Petersburg recently. Knowing he was there, Anzhi honored him at halftime by having him wear a tradition Dagestani burka (the cape) and papakha (the hat). That's how you get the goofiest Alex Ovechkin photo you will ever see.
