Two-time Olympic champion Vyacheslav Fetisov answered the question of whether Russian captain of the Washington Capitals Alexander Ovechkin will be able to break Wayne Gretzky's record for goals this NHL season.
- Do you think Ovechkin will be able to break Gretzky's record this season? It's only 42 goals short.
- I think he's aiming for this result. Let's hope it will work out,” Fetisov said in a conversation with ‘Championship’ correspondent Vladimir Laevsky.
