After Russia was eliminated from the World Championships in Helsinki on Thursday, a league source told The Washington Post’s Katie Carrera that Alex Ovechkin suffered a hairline fracture in his foot after blocking a shot in game six. Late Thursday, as the Russian national team landed in Moscow, Ovi was photographed in the terminal by R-Sport with his luggage, including a walking boot. Poor guy.
If Maria wants to make wedding plans, this is the time to do it. He’s hobbled; he can’t run away!
11:30AM Update: Ovechkin has tweeted a photo with himself wearing the boot.
