Call him "Fantastic Mr. Ovechkin."
A group of Russian kids thought they were playing a fun game against some mascots during an intermission of a KHL game between SKA St. Peterburg and Lada Togliatti on Friday, but it turns out they were actually on the ice with Alex Ovechkin, Evgeni Malkin and Evgeny Kuznetsov.
Judging by the still shot, Ovechkin appears to be dressed as a fox, Kuznetsov is wearing a raccoon tail, and Malkin is sporting cat-claw gloves.

The trio are in Russia training for the upcoming World Cup of Hockey.
