Alex Ovechkin Shaves Off His Playoff Beard After Stanley Cup Win
The Washington Capitals star has been drinking and celebrating all over town, but he had one more thing to take care of in the wake of the Caps' victory.
Washington Capitals star Alex Ovechkin has been celebrating quite a bit since winning the Stanley Cup. Between sleeping with the trophy, doing keg stands out of it, and celebrating with thousands of fans in Washington D.C., Ovechkin has been soaking up every moment of his first championship.
