When Jeff and Jessica Jones’ first home burned down in February, one of Jeff’s most cherished possessions — an autographed Alex Ovechkin sweater — was turned to ash.
So, who better to brighten the Washington Capitals fan’s day than Ovechkin himself? That enigmatic Russian who baffles us with all the kind things he does for people and puppies.
After Jessica wrote a letter to the Capitals explaining their misfortune, Ovechkin surprised the couple with a little something:
Ovechkin presented Jeff with a new signed jersey and a pair of tickets to a game.
“To meet my favourite player, the best player in the world… I don’t even know what to say,” Jeff told Monumental Network. “I’m just taken aback by the graciousness of people. It’s a huge pick-me-up.”
