Dmitry Khristich accidentally met a representative of the aggressor country while visiting the United States.
Dmitry Khristich shares his memories of his meeting in the USA with the Russian hockey player Alexander Ovechkin. The latter is currently the club captain Washington Capitals. The club where Khristic played most of his career.
As the head coach of the Ukrainian national team said, the meeting with the representative of the aggressor country took place in the US capital.
“I don’t know Ovechkin personally. At one of these events, not face to face, but next to other people, Americans, Canadians, he came up and said hello. He asked about what was happening with us. ” Can you imagine, they are bombing!” In fact, after that we never spoke. But recently something happened. Photographed by a large group of former players Capitals. Ovechkin is close. He was made to stand in the middle and take a picture as well. Sasha was standing not in the middle, but next to me, on the side. What should I do, run away? Although it surprises me that this picture did not make it to Ukraine. Again there will be many conversations. Although I didn’t want to take a picture with him,” said Khristich in an interview with Sport.ua.
