From a physical point of view, everything is normal. The two players bump and absorb almost the same amount of energy. In fact, even if Ovi doesn't fall, we see that he's the one who absorbs the biggest impact because he goes backwards.
That's not Sergei, it's Andrei. This is impresive by Ovi because AK is a big strong dude who hits like a truck, I dunno what he was doing there it looked like he changed his mind about throwing the hit
Imagine, Ovechkin was skating at least three times faster than Kostitsyn when the collision happened. Kostitsyn fall, yes, but not as though if it would have been the contrary!
its cuz ovy hops a bit when he see's some1 chargin at him soo he has levirage...all he has to do is drop his shoulder or his hands into his chest and its done

@ryanxdavey This one goes back to 06. Kostitsyn would level Ovi if this happened nowadays.

Andrei (because it was him, not Sergei) is solid physically, but Ovechkin is a train.
Sergei would have died after that contact.

The fact is Ovechkin had more speed than Kostitsyn had at the time the hit came. So is he would have been the contrary, Ovechkin would have fallen
