Athletistic / Hockey. Two-time Olympic hockey champion Vyacheslav Fetisov shared his opinion on Washington Capitals captain Alexander Ovechkin’s game. Fetisov called the Russian the greatest athlete of all time.

Earlier, Ovechkin scored a double in a match against the New York Islanders (4:1) and ended a six-game goalless streak in the NHL.

“Sasha is the greatest athlete of all time! He has been under pressure his whole life. Psychologically, he is ready for this challenge. This will be the greatest broken record in the history of sport.

There are all sorts of downsides. We trained with him, I can say he is focused and understands his mission. I hope everyone on the team understands this too. He is a strong person, so he can cope with any difficulties. The main thing is to have sufficient health,” Fetisov is quoted in Sport-Express.
