Igor Larionov, two-time Olympic champion, three-time Stanley Cup winner and head coach of Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod, has expressed his support for Washington Capitals captain Alexander Ovechkin ahead of the new NHL season.

“I can only wish him to be perfectly fine. The game is getting faster, so I wish him to be healthy and fast.”

Ovechkin scored 65 (31+34) points in 79 regular season games during the 2023/2024 season and helped the Capitals reach the NHL playoffs. The Russian (853) is 41 pucks away from Wayne Gretzky's sniper record (894) in the regular season.
