Gleb Chistyakov, agent of Washington Capitals captain Alexander Ovechkin, commented on his client’s first goal in 15 games in the National Hockey League (NHL). “Soviet sport”.
“I’m sure everything will continue well. I think external pressure does not affect Sasha because he is an experienced player and does not pay attention to it,” said Chistyakov.
