I have no idea how the Caps haven't even made the Eastern conference finals since Ovechkin got there. Anyway, I'm not sure if this is a good analogy, but looking at Ovechkin reminds me of Shaq. Yes Shaq won 4 championships and Ovechkin hasn't won any, but there was always this feeling that if Shaq just got into shape, he would be even more dominant. I feel like that for Ovechkin; if he just took the game as seriously as Crosby, he'd be even better. He just wants to have fun, and that's not a knock against him at all - he's still young, has a ton of money, and plays hockey for a living. I'd be enjoying life too, and if he retired right this second, he'd still be a first ballot Hall of Famer.
