ESPN reporter confronts Alex Ovechkin on Russian political ad

Alex Ovechkin is at the center of a firestorm once again, not because of what he's done on the ice, but because of his support for Russian president Vladimir Putin and his political party.

The NHL's all-time leading goalscorer was featured in an ad for Putin's United Russia party ahead of new elections for the Duma, one of Russia's houses of parliament. Russian elections are widely condemned around the world as being neither free nor fair.
