The first round draft pick of the Washington Capitals in 2004 at 1st overall, Alex Ovechkin finally brought the franchise their first Stanley Cup championship in 2018 and now finds himself less than 100 goals away from breaking Wayne Gretzky’s all-time goal scoring mark. An excellent opportunity for both collector and investor alike, offered here is this collection of forty-one (41) Ovechkin cards dating between 2004-05 and 2008-09. With 18 of the 41 cards consisting lower level inserts and base cards from 2006-07, the group is headlined by a 2006-07 Upper Deck Sweet Shot “Sweet Stitches” jersey card of “The Great 8” that is serial numbered “197/200” at the top right and contains a single piece of blue jersey swatch one donned by Ovi embedded into it while remaining in the condition range of EX-MT to NM due to some corner and edge wear. Sticking with the 2006-07 trend, Ovi’s Upper Deck The Cup base card from the release is included, displaying a serial number of “212/249” over the front and showing with many spots of paper loss along with some light corner and edge wear that drops it down to the vicinity of VG-EX to EX. The oldest cards included date back to 2004-05 and total four with the future NHL star pictured in his Russian National Team uniform on three different ITG Heroes and Prospects cards that all remain in the proximity of EX-MT to NM condition or better with only a couple showing light corner wear at a couple of their points. For 2005-06 examples, Ovi is seen four times on two different ITG Heroes and Prospects cards once again while his NHL examples include those from Upper Deck’s 2005-06 Series Two (checklist), Parkhurst and Victory releases with the latter two both being RC’s. All once again display beautifully and fall into the vicinity of EX-MT to NM or better for their conditions. To conclude the surely pleasing to our lucky winning bidder group, a total of ten (10) cards from the years 2007-08 and 2008-09 are included, all lower end inserts or base cards with the exception being a 2007-08 UD SP Authentic “SP Notables” insert that is serial numbered “1376/1999” and shows in the scope of EX-MT condition with light wear to the corners and edges.
