At 8 year’s old, Alex’s older brother Sergei would introduce him to organized hockey and Alex would enroll in hockey school. At one point, his parents were no longer able to get Alex to hockey so Sergei stepped in and made sure that he could get his little brother wherever he needed to go. He was one of the first to notice the talent in Alex, and he wanted to be sure he was able to use it.
Unfortunately, years later an event would happen that would change Ovechkin forever. His older brother Sergei, in his early 20′s at the time, was tragically killed in a car accident. To this day Ovechkin still credits his brother for introducing him to and pushing him to continue playing hockey. Many say his passion for the game comes from this tragic event and to this day, when he scores, Alex will often kiss his glove and point to the sky in a salute to his brother.

Posting this because some people think that Ovie’s saying that he is number one when he does this. You jerks.

I don’t think I ever see him not doing it. Sometime a bit late but he always does.
