Athletistic/Hockey. The Washington Capitals’ Russian forward is chasing legendary Canadian hockey player Wayne Gretzky’s record. The Russian currently has 824 goals in the NHL. Gretzky scored 894 goals. So, the Russian must score 70 more times to break the record. Siberian Canadian forward Andy Andreoff spoke about this.
– Ovechkin is probably my favorite Russian player in the NHL. He is fully capable of breaking Gretzky’s record, he still has an incredible shot. “He shoots from anywhere, and any Capitals game is a great pleasure to watch,” Andreoff was quoted as saying. Metaratings.ru.
