Alex Ovechkin‘s goodwill tour continues. What a moment after the Leafs game.
Little girl's sign, behind the glass, wearing a hat that looks like a cake: "OVECHKIN IT'S MY BIRTHDAY MAY I PLEASE HAVE YOUR STICK!"

Well, at least he apologized.
So far this season Ovechkin has gone on a date with a young girl with Down Syndrome, granted Lauren Santora’s wish, tossed pucks to countless others, talked to fans on Instagram, and gave away a stick to a kid who describes himself as Ovechkin’s biggest fan. This is impressive and awesome.
