First-line forwards, Alex Ovechkin and Tom Wilson, are vacationing together near Cancun, Mexico, and Friday their bye-week hangout went to another level. And by that, I mean the “Expert” level on Just Dance.
The Russian machine and the Tom Train took to the game room and danced their afternoon away with two tots from Ovechkin’s extended family.

Taylor Pischke, Wilson’s girlfriend, and Nastya Ovechkina, Ovi’s wife, can be heard laughing in the background.
“They’re actually good,” Pischke remarks towards the end of the video. I’m surprised as you are, Taylor.
The dance party was just one of many things Ovechkin and Wilson have done together this week.
Thursday, the lineys teamed up for a game of ping pong together. (Please no one let Michael Latta see this. I can’t imagine how jealous he’d feel.)
Ovechkin and Wilson also played volleyball together along with Pischke, who is a professional player in Canada.
The two seem to have had a lovely time together with their families and loved ones.
Ovechkin was scheduled to be in St. Louis for the 2020 NHL All-Star Skills Competition tonight before announcing he would skip the game in mid-January to rest up for the second half of the season.
