1.03.2025 Irina Rodnina: Ovechkin plays for his pleasure, and does not chase Gretzka. Surely he will win something else, the main thing is to return to the combat system after an injury

Irina Rodnina spoke about Alexander Ovechkin and the record of Wayne Gretzki. The 39-year-old striker of Washington is in second place in goal in regular championships in the history of the NHL (870 goals), second only to Gretzky (894).
I think that Alexander Ovechkin does not lead the race for the record of Wayne Gretzky. He plays and plays for his pleasure, with a good mood and at the same time very responsible. And for sure he will win something else, for him now the most important thing is to return to the combat system after an injury.
Partners on command help him because his goals often lead to victory. Washington is probably strong that everyone stands for each other.
Such an Ovechkin record will probably be pleasant to each of the team players. Moreover, when you yourself made your efforts to this great achievement, ”said Irina Rodnina, a three -time Olympic figure skating champion.
Ovechkin congratulated the fans on the New Year: the 2024th turned out to be difficult, but I felt your support. Thanks to each of you! I will move step by step and delight with my game
