“We said Washington’s chances of making the NHL playoffs are 50/50, the guys fought to the last one, everything went well.
Sasha Ovechkin surpassed the 30 goal mark this season, scoring 31 goals, which is a good result at his age.
The Rangers will be tough in the playoffs, Igor Shesterkin is one of the best goalies in the NHL and Artemi Panarin is one of the best forwards in the league.
The Rangers’ lineup is smoother and more powerful, Washington has few chances, but this is the NHL, anything can happen here,” the Championship agent quotes.
