Athletistic / Hockey. Washington Capitals captain Alexander Ovechkin explained his own quote. He previously said that he and Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby saved the NHL.

Both hockey players have been playing in the NHL since the 2005/2006 season.

“Washington” with Ovechkin scored four goals in one period for the first time this season

“We became the two faces of the league, and that built its business. An advertising campaign was built around Sydney and me, which attracted fans and press.

Crosby – Ovechkin, Washington – Pittsburgh. Maybe someone misunderstood my line about saving the league. It’s just that at that time we were the faces of the NHL.

Did you manage to get to know him better? Yes, we talked constantly during last year’s All-Star Game. We correspond and communicate,” Sport-Express quotes Ovechkin.
