Washington Capitals forward Alex Ovechkin keeps on trucking at the ripe old age of 34.
Ovechkin unleashed a thunderous hit on Montreal Canadiens forward Jonathan Drouin at the beginning of the second period during Friday night's matchup.
Drouin was visibly shaken up after the hit and immediately went to the dressing room. He missed the rest of the period, but returned to start the third. No penalty was handed out on the play.
