Alex Ovechkin is approaching NHL grandfather status, it shows.
Trent Fredric looked set to scrap Ovechkin during their 2-1 loss to Washington last night but when he realized Ovi was giving him the first shot for free, Fredric bailed. Wise decision

Fredric didn’t learn a fucking thing either. Two shifts later, Fredric played the tough guy again and Ovi returned the favor with a vicious pitchfork to Trent’s dick and balls. Unwise decision.
Ovi’s just like “nah bro.” https://t.co/7N9brz69GJ

That’s Ovi saying, ‘I have no idea who you are and you haven’t earned the right to touch me, so stay in your fucking lane, kid”.
On the street, this is assault with a weapon. On the ice, it’s part of the NHL’s unwritten code of conduct for NHL scrubs who look to make a name for themselves by going after legitimate superstars.
Alex Ovechkin has 713 career goals. Trent Frederic? 2.
Ovi and Fredric both received minors for the fracas, but Trent Fredric learned a valuable lesson last night.
Don’t fuck with Ovi.
Alexander Ovechkin, one of the greatest goalscorers to ever play the game, is terrifying, and Trent Fredric is lucky not to be having corrective surgery this morning.
