“I think for the most part we limited his time and space,” Weber said. “I think he had a couple of good chances, and Peks came up with huge saves. Not only is (Ovechkin) one of the most skilled players in the world, (but) he’s a big and strong guy, so it’s fun. A lot of times we get the super-skilled guys who aren’t the big hitters. But he’s one of those guys who likes to play aggressive and physical as well.”
