russian striker “Capitals of Washington” Alexander Ovechkin shared his expectations of the new season and also talked about the Capitals’ main goal discussion.
Last season, Ovechkin took second place in the number of goals scored in the NHL regular season – 822. The record belongs to the Canadian Wayne Gretzky including 894 pucks.
What are your expectations for the new season? The most important thing is that everyone is healthy, and then we will see. Maintain a relationship with the new head coach (Spencer Carbury. – editor’s note)? Yes, we have spoken. I knew him even before that, because he was in the Washington system. Therefore, everything is fine.
Did the extension of the contract with Tom Wilson rain? Yes of course. He’s been in the team for a long time, he knows the city, his fans love him, he loves the city. I’m happy for him and for the fact that he extended his contract with the club.
A lot of people say the main goal of the Washingtons is for me to break Wayne Gretzky’s eternal record, isn’t that kind of annoying talk? Let’s live and then we’ll see. I still have three years of contract, we will see what will happen”, “Championship” quotes Ovechkin.
