The legendary hockey player Wayne Gretzky spoke critically about the performance of the Russian striker “Washington Capitals” Yevgeny Kuznetsov clashes.
“I can’t stand it. A rule of thumb in the practice of a free throw, as in baseball, should be a timer. Seven or eight seconds. That’s my opinion.
And there’s the rotation with the stick in hand – we’d be uncomfortable with that on the bench. I understand that we live in a different era. But I think there should be dignity in the game.
If you don’t get to the door in seven or eight, you don’t deserve to leave, Gretzky told TNT.
In his own way, Kuznetsov brought victory to his team in a shootout against the Islanders.
Capitals have little chance of reaching the playoffs in the National Hockey League (NHL). Peter Laviolette’s team is 13th in the Eastern Conference with 77 points. Pittsburgh, which is in eighth place and is currently advancing to the next round, has 86 points.
In the next match, “Washington” will play away against “Montreal”.
It was previously reported that Hockey News has named Russian goalkeeper “Tampa” Andrey Vasilevsky, the first star of the week in the NHL..
