What did little Svechnikov do to deserve that?

From what I have heard, he has been chirping Ovi the last few games.

Ovechkin says he was asking for it,

"First of all I hope he is OK," Ovechkin told reporters after the game when discussing his fight with Svechnikov.

"I'm not a big fighter. He's the same. He asked me to fight... You don't want to see a guy get hurt."

Damn, those announcers were annoying. The fight was awesome though.

I was reading how people were concerned about Svechnikov's head hitting the ice, but from the replay I saw Ovechkin kept it from being worse by holding his jersey. Never knew Ovechkin to be much of a fighter but he whipped that guy.
