Alexander Ovechkin Hockey Trading Card

This item is a standard-sized hockey trading card featuring Alexander Ovechkin, likely from the 'Victory' subset or series. The card is predominantly white, creating a border around the central image. The image itself captures Ovechkin, clad in the white, light blue, and perhaps dark blue or black uniform of the Washington Capitals (indicated by 'CAPITALS' in the upper right corner), actively skating on ice with a hockey stick. He is wearing a white helmet and white gloves. The background of the action shot appears to be an arena with blurred elements, possibly advertising hoardings, showing some reddish and white forms. The upper left corner of the card prominently displays the 'Victory' logo in red and white. At the bottom of the card, in a black strip, 'ALEXANDER OVECHKIN' is printed in white capital letters. To the left of his name, 'LW' (Left Wing) is visible, and to the right, a number 'B' or '8' is present, possibly indicating a card number or series identifier. The card appears to be in good condition with sharp corners and edges, suggesting minimal handling or perhaps having been stored in a protective sleeve. No significant wear, creasing, or damage is immediately discernible from the image. The colors are vibrant and the print quality seems high. This type of card is typically made of thick cardstock, often with a glossy finish on the image side. Judging by the aesthetics and design, it likely dates from the early 2000s, possibly around Ovechkin's rookie or early career years.
