Ak Bars forward Jordan Wheele has expressed his opinion on the play of Russian “Washington” forward Alexander Ovechkin, with whom he previously played in the NHL.
As a Canadian, would you be upset if Ovechkin broke Gretzky’s scoring record in the NHL?
– Well, that’s cool for hockey! Ovechkin only admires me. Scoring so many goals season after season, given the level of modern goalkeepers, is just plain insane. He’s very good, and although he doesn’t have the speed he had 15 years ago, his ability to find the opportunity to shoot and throw it himself is amazing. I would like to watch it without interruption.
If Ovechkin breaks the record, that will be cool. I hope it will. Imagine what begins when he scores 800 goals and Wayne has less than a hundred left. Everyone will be watching the “Washington” games, everyone will be watching Ovechkin, everyone will want to see the record-breaking goal live.
I don’t think Canada will be upset if Gretzky’s record goes to Ovechkin. In Canada, they generally see these things more easily. We are not such that the Gretzky record is a national pride. Ovi is a hockey player and we love hockey. Gretzky was the best player of his generation, now we watch Ovechkin, and then there’s Connor McDavid, who also does amazing things, – quotes Will “Online business“.
