ovi2K Sports has chosen Alexander Ovechkin to grace the cover of NHL 2K10.  In celebration, 2K Sports is holding a public outdoor motion capture session with Ovechkin himself at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas.  The game’s producers will be putting the hockey star through a number of drills to capture his signature style data.

Alexander Ovechkin, in case you didn’t know, plays left wing with the Washington Capitals.  He was the first overall selection in the 2004 entry draft, and scored more goals this season than anybody else in the NHL.  In a statement published by 2K Sports, Ovechkin says: “It’s a good time to be Ovi!”

NHL 2K10 is being developed by Visual Concepts for the Wii, Xbox 360, PS3 and PS2.  It ships later this fall.
