Year over year, Ovechkin has had one of the top-selling jerseys in the NHL due to his vast popularity. Ovechkin also has an exclusive memorabilia deal with Fanatics, meaning the site has a plethora of signed Ovi items including jerseys, pucks, and photos. And if you search hard, you’ll even find signed items with the inscription with RMNB. Combined wiwth Fanatics’ deep discounts during Cyber Week, which are still going on right now (up to 65% site wide), Ovechkin landed at the top of the list.
For those of you who aren’t yet giving the gift of Ovechkin this holiday season, there’s still time. We’re sure your loved ones will find the gifts both sick and unbelievable.
