Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin recently photobombed a wedding photo session in Saint Petersburg, Russia. The NHL's all-time leading goal scorer was captured on camera casually walking down a hotel staircase with a hockey stick in hand, intersecting with a couple taking their wedding pictures.
The incident occurred while Ovechkin was in his native Russia for the offseason charity game, the Match of the Year. The event featured several well-known names from the NHL and KHL.
Ovechkin is preparing to return to the United States for the Capitals' training camp, which is scheduled to begin in just over a month. The star forward signed a one-year contract extension with the Capitals earlier this month, ensuring his return for the upcoming season after the team missed the playoffs last year. The Capitals have also made several offseason acquisitions, including forwards Alex Tuch, Jordan Kyrou, and Boone Jenner.
