“I don’t know what my father will say to Ovechkin. He knew what to suggest, but I didn’t. But I advise him to train a little and be patient. He is an outstanding athlete, a world star and will soon break his losing streak. “I wish us to see and admire his play for as long as possible,” Tarasova said.
