Russian striker “Washington” Alexander Ovechkin said the Canadian striker “Edmonton” Connor McDavid “from another planet”, noting that the player has a solid technique.
McDavid has 92 points (41 assists, 51 points) in 50 games this season.
– He’s from another planet. How he plays, how he controls the puck and the speed. It is very interesting to watch.
He’s not a one-season player, but shows his game consistently every year. It’s nice to see that. It’s great for the hockey players, for the fans and for the kids,” Ovechkin said as quoted by the Toronto Sun.
The 2023 NHL All-Star Game begins on February 3 in Sunrise (USA, Florida). Ovechkin and McDavid will participate.
