  1. Penalty, his feet left the ice. I'd like to see him try that on Chara! He'd be out for the rest of the season.

  2. Run it at .25 speed, at 0:16 Ovi's feet leave the ice and he targets the head.  Because it's Ovechkin, this is a 'highlight' reel hit on nhl.com – had it been someone like gasp Zac Rinaldo, he'd get a 5 game ban.

  3. Best part in the video is when Pietrangelo and Ovechkin get back up and keep playing without a stupid fuckin' scrum after a clean hit.
