World champion Maxime Sushinski believes that the Washington forward Alexander Ovechkin will become the greatest hockey player when he breaks the record Wayne Gretzky by goals scored during regular NHL championships.
Ovechkin has scored 860 goals in his NHL career, second only to Gretzky (894 goals).
“I don’t want to bother Alexander yet – let him play while the match continues.” Comparison with Gretzky? If Ovechkin manages to surpass him in terms of goals, it will not be difficult to guess who is brighter.
But Alexandre must beat the record, otherwise everyone is in a hurry. Personally, I will only compare after Ovechkin breaks the record, so that no one has questions about who is better. For me, Ovechkin is better, but for some Canadians, it’s still Gretzky.
Did he manage to break the record this season? No one knows, not even Sasha himself. There’s no point in guessing the coffee grounds. If we succeed, we will rejoice. Will Ovechkin become the greatest hockey player if he breaks the record? Of course,” Sushinsky told Sport24.
