Traktor forward Nikita Tertychny said the whole world would be happy for Washington’s Russian striker Alexandra Ovechkina when he beats Wayne Gretzky’s record.
The Russian has scored 860 career goals in regular NHL championships and ranks second in the history of the league. The record holder is Wayne Gretzky, who has 894 goals.
— Ovechkin got angry. Already 34 goals away from Wayne Gretzky’s record. Will he be able to beat this season?
– Everyone is already waiting for this. You can see how happy they are and how Ovechkin generally behaves. Let him get high from this point on, he gets closer and closer. I think the whole world will be happy for him, including me, we just have to wait a little. It will be great when we know that a Russian has broken the record! — Tertyshny told Metaratings.ru.
