Washington Capitals forward Alex Ovechkin admitted after the series against the Panthers that he was suffering from a shoulder injury. The good news is that he will not need surgery to fix the problem.
However, in order not to feel the injury in the playoffs, he had to use injections and little magic pills.
"I hit the boards and banged my shoulder, but in the playoffs, I don't think it matters. If it hurts, you have injections to take and you have magic pills." - Ovechkin
What a guy!
