Former Russian national team forward Alexei Tereshchenko congratulated his former national team partner Alexander Ovechkin on his birthday.
On Tuesday, September 17, Ovechkin turned 39.
— Ovechkin is a professional. There is no other way to call him. A non-professional cannot become a grandmaster or a star. All words addressed to him are useless. I wish Alexander health, success, prosperity and a worthy end to the season, “Tereshchenko was quoted as saying by Metaratings.ru.
Ovechkin ranks second on the NHL’s all-time scoring list with 853 goals, behind Gretzky (894). As a member of Washington, Ovechkin won the Stanley Cup in 2018 and, with the Russian national team, he won the world championship three times.
