Hey Kovy! We're Proud Of You Too!

If you happened to watch last night's game on RDS, there was a brief interview with Alex Kovalev shortly after his introduction as the game's third star.

During the short Q & A, reference was made to what went on with him last season, and the transformation within himself that brought about a career year this season.

Acknowledging the interviewer's noting of the crowd response - a minute long ovation for having won this year's Molson Cup - Kovalev didn't bat an eye in his usual frankness when assessing the roaring approval for the seaon he has given the team.

The fans, obviously wanted him to feel their love, respect, and admiration.

"I'm proud of myself", Kovalev stated, something I don't think I've ever heard an athlete say in response to such a mass gesture of goodwill.

His answer didn't just catch me off guard - it knocked me out!
