Down-the-line.com / Figure Skating. Russia Honored Coach Inna Goncharenko drew a parallel between Russia’s Washington Capitals captain Alexander Ovechkin and figure skater Elizaveta Tuktamysheva. Ovechkin, thanks to a brace in the game against Winnipeg, moved up to second on the list of all-time leading scorers in NHL history, beating Gordie Howe. In turn, Tuktamysheva took third place at the Russian Championship in Krasnoyarsk.

“I would like to congratulate Alexander Ovechkin on a new record!

I really want to compare him to Liza Tuktamysheva in figure skating. It seems to me that they are in a close “weight class”: they have both experience, skills and a kind of obscenity”, Metaratings quotes Goncharenko.

Rothenberg turned to Ovechkin, who passed Howe in the list of all-time leading scorers in NHL history
