“Ovechkin’s anti-record clean sheet? I am not an expert and I do not comment on player statistics. I evaluate the performance of a hockey player from the point of view of the benefit he brings to the team, not by the marks in the goals scored table. What the player makes to the overall contribution is important. He may not score goals, but he can bring great benefits to the team. Therefore, I do not comment on such things. My perception focuses on what the player brings to the team,” Plyushchev noted in an interview for the Championship.
Pliushchev emphasized that the question of how useful Ovechkin is in Washington is not within his competence and should be discussed with the club’s management.
