Athletistic/Hockey. Currently, the Russian forward of the Washington Capitals, Alexander Ovechkin, is chasing the record of the legendary Canadian Wayne Gretzky. The Canadian has scored 894 goals in the NHL. The Russian is 68 goals behind Gretzky. At the same time, Ovechkin has not managed to score a goal in ten matches. Chris Cerullo, journalist at the American publication RMNB, spoke about it.

“I feel like he’s playing his best hockey of the season right now, even though he can’t hit the net. » Still, we would like to see him again, writes Cerullo.

Recall that Alexander Ovechkin previously had such a series only in February-March 2017. Then he also could not score a goal in ten games in a row.
