Athletistic / Hockey. Washington Capitals forward Dylan Strome says Capitals captain Alexander Ovechkin is a humble person. The Canadian explained how the legendary Russian views his unique accomplishments.
“I think Ovechkin is very, very humble, especially when it comes to what he’s done in his career. Alex is always very grateful to his teammates. I’ve noticed that over the last couple of years, even if he’s throwing a birthday puck, he always thanks other people first, gives them credit.
Of course, Ovechkin thinks about all these records. He may be the best scorer in NHL history, so we are in the same boat. I hope it happens in the new season! “The NHL press service quotes Strome.
