    – Today, Ovechkin has officially surpassed Wayne Gretzky, setting a new NHL record for regular-season goals with 895. This achievement is more than just a number; it represents his incredible professionalism, perseverance, and the excellence of Russian hockey training.

    In an era where international sports often serve as a battleground for political tensions, the remarkable Russian hockey player has once again demonstrated that a true champion rises above all barriers, winning the hearts of fans regardless of the circumstances. After all, Ovechkin has always been proud of and never shied away from his passport. He continues to be a vital part of the Putin team and stands as a global hockey icon, beloved by millions, now celebrated as the NHL’s all-time leading goal scorer.

    I am sure that Ovechkin’s record will remain unbreakable for many years to come – and his greatest game is still yet to come.
