Didn't look like he meant to take out Gonchar. Just a nice clean hard hit.

The way I saw it.... Ovechkin widened his stance and made that happen. He should be suspended.

Clean!? Are you kidding? How is it clean when he stuck his knee out and blatantly tripped Gonch? Ridiculous. The guy is a goon and he couldn't care less if he injures someone with one of his big hits. I agree he should be suspended, but the chance of that happening is less than zero. No way the NHL will take him out of the "Crosby vs. Ovechkin" series.
EDIT: It wasn't even a hit, it was knee on knee contact. Totally different, and not legal.

I'd take Ovechkin anyday. Crosby is a primadona who doesn't think he should ever get hit. I am unbiased and really didn't think Ovechkin was that out of line. He is an incredible player but doesn't matter much to me because hopefully no one will beat my Red Wings again this year.

Crosby takes a shitload of hits. I've never once heard him say that he should never get hit. Ovechkin is a tool. Just compare the two players when they're on the ice. Ovechkin stands in one spot and waits for someone to set him up for a slap shot or mindlessly skates around looking to hit someone who has their head down. The Kid flies around the ice and is constantly making plays, fighting in the corners for pucks, making ridiculous passes, backchecking, setting up other players with amazing scoring chances, makes incredible plays of his own, etc. Oh, and he also has more goals in the playoffs than Ovechkin.

One of those nice clean knee-on-knee hits. 
The only thing I find more annoying than Ovalchicken is the fact that nobody makes him pay for the shit he pulls.
He's a grade A punk and I look forward to the day that somebody holds him accountable.

I had to laugh at his outfit after the game. He looked like a lazy bum with his collared shirt not buttoned the whole way and his tie that was loose as hell. What a fucking idiot. When's the last time you saw that guy make a great pass or fight in the corner for a puck? Or how about get back on defense? Christ. Never. It's ridiculous how overrated he is. I may hate him more than any other professional athlete.

I'll give him credit where it's due - his shot is unbelievable. But that's all he's got. If he's not scoring goals, he is a total non-factor. The only thing he ever does away from the puck is charge guys. Douchebag.

I think if you watch this video it clearly shows that Ovechkin has more than just a shot. At least be somewhat objective.

I'm so shocked. A video of him scoring goals and hitting people. I must have missed all the passes and defense in there.

Each player has a job to do on a team. Ovechkin's is definitely goal scoring and hitting. I like his tough style of play. Like I said I am not a Capitals fan I am a Red Wings fan but I do like Ovechkins play. I really like Fedorov as well. I guess if I was a Penguin's fan I would see malice in the hit on Gonchar but being a non biased spectator I didn't see him try and hurt Gonchar. He was going really fast and I didn't see him make any moves to clip Gonchar. The announcers didn't seem to think so as well.

Barry Melrose, who is a smart guy and knows hockey, said straight up on ESPN that it was a dirty hit. He clearly stuck his leg out. And as for comparing him to Crosby, just look at stats besides goal scoring to see who is the better all around player. Shots on goal and assists are 2 of the key ones. Ovechkin's SOG number is ridiculously high, and his assists are low.

Yeah, his job is to score goals. And he does it pretty well. He's got more ice time than Crosby, twice as many shots as Crosby, and almost as many goals as Crosby. 
He's such a dynamic player.
