Alexander Ovechkin and Brooks Laich spent a lot of time together in the NHL. Laich was acquired by the Washington Capitals during the 2003-04 season, in the trade that sent Peter Bondra to the Ottawa Senators. However, he didn’t make his debut with the Caps until the 2005-06 season, which happened to be Ovechkin’s rookie year.
The two played together for a good 10 years, but it all came to an end when Laich was dealt to the Toronto Maple Leafs during the 2015-16 season.
Laich recently posted a photo on his Instagram account which features him grinding a bunch of fruits and vegetables, with the caption mentioning how he’s a huge advocate of homemade organic juicing.
Of course, being the fun guy that Ovi is, he left a comment on his former teammate’s photo letting him know how he stays so fit and dominate.
The combo might work for Ovi, but we don’t recommend taking his advice, even if he is one of the greatest goal scorers in the history of the NHL.
