The sage of Alex Ovechkin and the Stanley Cup continues. There have been more moments of the Russian and the Cup than there has been of… well, anyone ever. This is partly because he seems to be having way more fun than anyone else, and the celebrations have been very well documented thus far.
Through all the content that has emerged over the past few days, it’s important not to let that overshadow the beauty of that first moment Ovi lifted the long-elusive Cup over his head. To capture the moment in another form, flipbook artist The Flippist decided to recreate the iconic scene.
You may remember this flip artist from the recreated moment of Braden Holtby’s legendary save. Many people think that Holtby’s save was one of the turning points of the series, and it was beautifully shown in flipbook form here.
