The image of the Washington Capitals lifting the Stanley Cup on the ice following their historic Game Five win was an enduringly powerful and emotional moment for fans everywhere.
Now, thanks to a new NHL feature on Evgeny Kuznetsov, we have been treated to perhaps the cutest Cup-lift photograph to ever exist.
Meet Ecenia Kuznetsova, Stanley Cup champion.

Evgeny Kuznetsov’s bird walk celebration has its haters and its imitators, but the celebration isn’t going anywhere–not if three-year old Ecenia Kuznetsova has anything to say about it
In a Russian-language interview with Sport-Express’s Igor Rabiner, Kuznetsov revealed that his daughter has started getting mad when Dad doesn’t do the bird walk celly.

Does Capitals center Evgeny Kuznetsov enjoy being a father? You tell us.
Tuesday night, Kuzy and his wife Anastasia took their daughter Ecenia on a train ride at Tysons Corner. I’m not sure who had more fun: Evgeny or tiny Ecenia.
The Washington Capitals started off their bye-week by getting into some car-related hijinks. On Sunday, Andre Burakovsky mistook a random stranger for an Uber-driver, but was delivered to his destination nonetheless.
Later that evening, Evgeny Kuznetsov, who is vacationing in Cancun, Mexico, posted a video to his Instagram feed demonstrating some questionable driving practices with some even more questionable passengers.

Nearly 14 months ago, Evgeny Kuznetsov’s wife Nastia gave birth to the couple’s first child, an adorable baby girl named Ecenia. “I am a dad,” Kuznetsov wrote in Russian, the night Ecenia was born. “Thank you for my daughter, my love.”
Fast forward to Monday, Kuznetsov posted a photo of one-year-old Ecenia wearing a diadem, cape, and a shirt which has the phrase “I’m the boss” on it. Kuznetsov captioned the photo “Царевна👼🏼.” According to RMNB’s Igor Kleyner, the word translates to tsarevna, which means the daughter of tsar or the daughter of a king.
Ecenia is Evgeny’s princess.
