The NHL is clearly getting a lot of love from the music world recently as the Toronto Maple Leafs jersey collaboration with Justin Bieber's "Drew" clothing line quickly became the best selling jersey of 2022.
This isn't the only time Alex Ovechkin has been bigger than Hockey culturally, as someone mentioned in the same breath as Wayne Gretzky and Jaromir Jagr, Ovi's cultural relevancy continues in the mainstream.
During the lockout, stars of the Russian national team gathered in Novogorsk along with Russian pop star Irina Allegrova to film a music video for the song Shaybu Shaybu, a pump-up pop number for the Sochi Olympics.
