Coach Andrey Nazarov in an interview “Championship” He suggested that we consider naming one of the ice palaces in Russia after Alexander Ovechkin, forward of the National Hockey League (NHL) club “Washington Capitals”.
To him, it’s a way to congratulate the 38-year-old forward for surpassing the 1,500-point mark in an NHL regular-season game against Dallas.
“Alexander deserves every possible honor, including arenas and academies being named in his honor. So, for example, one of the arenas in Russia should be named after Ovechkin, not necessarily in the Moscow region. This way we can immortalize the 1,500 points that Sasha scored in the NHL,” said Nazarov.
