Ovechkin is 39 years old and has scored one goal and provided three assists in four games this season. The Russian scored 854 goals in regular NHL championships, according to this indicator he is second only to Gretzky (894).
— Would you like to go to Ovechkin’s match in America, where he will break Gretzky’s record? When he has, say, one puck left. Or are you not such close friends?
“We are friends and I would love to be in this match.” But for now, it’s time to figure it out. When will this happen? Maybe he’ll break the record in five games and have to cross America for him. Or maybe he will beat him in the first match,” Kirilenko told .
Kirilenko has led the RFB since August 2015. In September he was re-elected for a new four-year term.
