(7,947 posts)2. From your link wikipedia Ovechkin is on "Putin's Team"
"Ovechkin has a personal relationship with Putin.[4] The Kremlin has spoken supportively of the movement after its announcement.[5][6]
Ovechkin has claimed that the idea for Putin Team was all his own. However, Vedomosti has reported that Kremlin sources have said that IMA-Consulting (a Kremlin-supported public-relations firm) were behind the creation of the organization.[4]"
