Vyacheslav Fetisov praised the political potential of Alexander Ovechkin
Two-time Olympic champion Vyacheslav Fetisov praised the political potential of the Russian forward of the National Hockey League (NHL) Washington Capitals club Alexander Ovechkin. It is reported by “Match TV”.
According to him, the 37-year-old striker makes consistent political statements. “Not many people can afford this. Especially when you wear a Putin Team T-shirt and you have a photo with the president in your profile picture on social networks. Everyone sees it. So in this sense, Ovechkin has political potential,” Fetisov said.
The two-time Olympic winner added that Ovechkin should choose for himself what to do at the end of his career. “You must understand that you can be useful,” Fetisov said.
Ovechkin has been with Washington since 2005. Together with the team, he won the Stanley Cup, and as part of the Russian team he became a three-time world champion.
