is there a(nother) fangirl in the house?

Dear people with experience in hockey RPS: is the immediate Crosby=>Ovechkin association something typical of civilians too, or is it a fandom thing? Inquiring minds want to know!

[Background:

A roommate: It's playoffs!

Me: *busily typing out tentacle porn* Cool, what sport is that?

A roommate: Hockey!

Me: Oh cool, I have friends who are so into hockey smut. I think they are into Crosby?

A roommate: Meh, not my team, but speaking of Crosby, have you heard of Ovechkin?

Me: ...I might have read a smutty fic or two about them, yes.

And now she's strutting around the house wearing an awesome pendant: Ovechkin's face photoshopped onto Oviceraptor(?) dinosaur, raising the household quotient of fannish awesomeness by about 200%.

I want another fangirl in the house! But sports geekery counts anyways, I guess.]

OK OK I'll just link to one more commercial: Ovechkin pranks Crosby during a road trip. This is totally not a fic! Professional PR people thought this was a good idea!

LOL clearly you have the roommate I deserve! Tragic. I hope you'll come to share some porn with her some day.

Ahaha God that video! (I'm starting to assume that this is gonna be my default reaction to a lot of their promo materials, won't it?)

You say that like it's mutually exclusive. They probably do both, but they only have the $ to film the PG parts of it.
