— Alexander Ovechkin’s 1,500 points in the NHL constitute an important milestone and a very serious result for all of our hockey. I would like to congratulate Alexandre for such a serious note. It’s great,” Chistyakov said as quoted by “Championship”.
The forward scored 827 goals and made 673 assists in the NHL. Ovechkin was the first Russian to reach 1,500 points in the NHL. The 38-year-old forward became the 16th player to reach such numbers in the league and second among active hockey players, just behind Pittsburgh forward Sidney Crosby (1,529).
