Athletistic / Hockey. Washington Capitals forward TJ Oshie spoke about the results of the NHL regular season match against the Vancouver Canucks (2:1). The winning goal for the capital in this meeting was scored by team captain Alexander Ovechkin.
“At the moment of the winning goal, Alekseev did a great job, subtly sensing the moment to pass. When the puck did not immediately fly into the net, it made me nervous. It would have been great if McMichael had just threw the puck into the goal, but it’s always great when “Big Eight” (nickname of Alexander Ovechkin – Rating Athletistic) score while you’re on the ice,” Osha said, as quoted by the Caps press service.
Alexander Ovechkin scored his 127th winning goal in the NHL and is second in this indicator in the entire history of the league behind the legendary Czech Jaromir Jagr (135). This season, Ovi scored 50 points (19+31) in 63 matches.
