Alex Ovechkin has been in the NHL for quite a long time, and now he has revealed which other teams in the league are his favourite. For years now, Alex Ovechkin has been a part of one of the NHL's best modern rivalries, but it seems now as though he doesn't let those type of things get in the way of admiring his fellow NHLers. Now, he's opened up on some of his favourites in a recent interview when he was asked about his favourite NHL teams beyond his own Washington Capitals. <q>«I like Tampa � they play combination hockey,» Ovechkin said per a transcription by sports.ru and a translation by Google Translate. «Everyone plays a pass, it's nice to watch.»</q> Given the success Tampa Bay have had with some exciting players, including fellow Russian Nikita Kucherov, this pick comes as no surprise, as they play an incredibly exciting, team friendly game of hockey during their three straight Stanley Cup Finals appearances. Then, Ovechkin added another team, revealing his admiration for the Edmonton Oilers, likely due to superstar Connor McDavid, who has admitted before that Ovechkin was one of his favourite players growing up. <q>«I like Edmonton,» Ovechkin said. «But again � it all depends on the players.»</q> <div align='center' style='padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px;'><img src='https://i.marqueur.com/habsetlnh/i/photo/456357.webp' width='100%' border='0' alt='image' loading='lazy' defer /></div> Ovechkin's career is likely winding down over the next few years as he hits 38-years of age, but with Kucherov and McDavid leading the way for the next generation, these are certainly two fantastic picks for The Great 8.
