Three-time world hockey champion Alexei Tereshchenko said Washington and Capitals captain Alexander Ovechkin are currently showing a high level of play in the NHL.
On Sunday, Ovechkin, 39, scored a hat-trick in the match against Vegas (5:2). The Russian forward ranks second in the list of best snipers in the history of regular NHL championships (866 goals), just behind Canadian Wayne Gretzky (894).
– This is Sasha’s high level. His partners and Washington himself are among the leaders of the championship. One cannot exist without the other,” Tereshchenko said at the Championship.
Washington is in third place in the Eastern Conference standings.
