Four-year-old Sergei Ovechkin combined with Alex Ovechkin and Sidney Crosby to win the Breakaway Challenge at the 2023 All-Star Skills competition on Friday.
We know who won the figurative trophy, but who went home with the extremely valuable prop they autographed during it?
Zdeno Chara isn’t the only Norris Trophy-winning defenseman to hang ’em up today.
PK Subban announced his retirement on social media as well. Subban was one of the best defensemen and most entertaining players of this generation.
In his announcement, Subban teased “exciting opportunities to come.” At the end of last year, Subban contributed to ESPN’s coverage of the NHL and also debuted a show called PK’s Places.
The Washington Capitals fell behind early to the New Jersey Devils on Sunday, but Nic Dowd and the fourth line fueled a comeback in the third period that would eventually net them a point for forcing overtime.
Dowd hit a puck out of mid-air past Mackenzie Blackwood and celebrated by doing the running man. The goal was Dowd’s fifth of the season.
In a stunning offseason crossover no one saw coming, Devils defenseman PK Subban lifted weights as the biggest movie star on planet Earth, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, served as his workout coach.
“Today, I became a man. @TheRock,” Subban wrote on his social media accounts.
George Floyd died on May 25, after a police officer knelt on his neck for more than eight minutes. His death has sparked sorrow and protests across the country, demanding meaningful change. While many high-profile athletes have shared their opinions on the event, including LeBron James and Colin Kaepernick, the NHL has been relatively quiet.
Two Black players, JT Brown and Evander Kane, were the first to speak up. In an interview with ESPN’s First Take, Kane called on other high profile athletes “like Tom Brady and Sidney Crosby” to do something.
“We need so many more athletes–that don’t look like me–speaking out about this,” he said, “having the same amount of outrage that I have inside, and using that to voice their opinion, to voice their frustration, because that’s the only way it’s going to change.”
Since that time, more NHL players–both white and Black–have added their voices to the call for change. Here’s who they are and what they had to say.

PK Subban will be hosting a new game show as the NHL tries to engage fans during the coronavirus pandemic. The show is entitled Hat Trick Trivia.
Subban will quiz each contestant with three hockey-related questions for the opportunity to win prizes. According to the NHL, the contestants in the debut episode include a St. Louis police officer and a New Jersey paramedic currently on the front lines in the fight against coronavirus, with a special appearance by Tampa Bay Lightning forward Pat Maroon.
The game show will premiere on Saturday, April 11, and air on the NHL’s YouTube at 12:30 PM.
Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin was one of four NHL players who participated in a Zoom teleconference on Thursday with the NHL season paused due to the coronavirus pandemic. The conversation was led by the NHL’s vice president of communications John Dellapina and the other players involved were the New Jersey Devils’ PK Subban, the New York Islanders’ Anders Lee, and the Columbus Blue Jackets’ Nick Foligno. Reporters submitted questions in the morning.
One of the biggest mysteries surrounding the 2019-20 season is if the season will resume. Going on the assumption that it does, Dellapina asked Ovechkin if he’d want to play more regular-season games or just skip the final 13 games and begin the playoffs.
With the Capitals in first place in the Metropolitan Division, Ovi was fine just going right to the playoffs.
“Sorry, guys,” Ovi said laughing.

Today’s been heavy so here’s some good news.
New Jersey Devils defenseman PK Subban is now engaged to Olympic gold medalist Lindsey Vonn.
According to Vogue Magazine, Subban proposed to Vonn on August 14 at home with an emerald ring. Vonn’s favorite color is green and emerald is Subban’s May birthstone.
The Dallas Stars Stranger Things video was great, but PK Subban’s Fourth of July salute is going to be tough to beat.
The New Jersey Devils defenseman continued a tradition he started last year by posting media of himself in a stars-and-stripes bathing suit.
This year, he went a step further by wearing a bikini.
