Caps name Alex Ovechkin as new captain

Washington Capitals left wing Alex Ovechkin took the ice for Tuesday's game against the Montreal Canadiens wearing the captain's ‘C' on his sweater for the first time, hours after being named as the 14th captain in club history.

Vice president and general manager George McPhee and coach Bruce Boudreau made the selection, and Boudreau informed his team of the decision Tuesday morning, eight days after the Caps traded their previous captain, Chris Clark, to Columbus.

Ovechkin, 24, is the first European-born captain in Capitals history and the second-youngest captain in team history -- Ryan Walter was 21 when he captained the 1979-80 team. The Moscow native is the sixth Russian-born player to be an NHL captain and joins Atlanta's Ilya Kovalchuk as the only active Russians to captain their teams (Pavel Bure, Alexander Mogilny, Alexei Yashin and Alexei Zhamnov also served as captains at points during their careers).

Ovechkin has been one of the Caps' alternate captains since 2006-07, his second season in the NHL.

"Our team has adopted Alex's personality, and the energy, passion and drive to win that are his hallmarks have become our team's as well," McPhee said. "He sets the tone, on the ice as well as off. He's respectful to everyone and a great ambassador for our team and our sport. We look forward to him leading the Washington Capitals for a long time."

Ovechkin has won the Hart Trophy and Lester B. Pearson Award as the NHL's most valuable player as voted by the media and the players, respectively in each of the last two seasons -- becoming the first player since Dominik Hasek in 1996-97 and 1997-98 to win the Hart in consecutive seasons. He has also captured back-to-back Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophies as the NHL's top goal scorer, and won the 2006 Calder Trophy as the League's rookie of the year.

Ovechkin is just the second player all-time to be named to the NHL First All-Star Team in each of his first four seasons in the league, joining Montreal goaltender Bill Durnan (1944-47), and has played in three NHL All-Star Games. He was recently named to his second Russian Olympic team. Ovechkin is in the second season of a 13-year contract, the longest in Capitals history, which he signed on Jan. 10, 2008.
