Canadian journalist called Ovechkin a miracle of nature

Canadian journalist Mike McIntyre shared his opinion about the Russian striker “Washington Capitals” Alexander Ovechkin. His words are available on the Winnipeg Free Press website.

“Despite turning 36 last fall, he is showing absolutely no signs of slowing down. The numbers show that he just gets stronger in his mature athletic years, which really makes him a wonder of nature, ”McIntyre said. In his opinion, Ovechkin has been the best player in the National Hockey League (NHL) since 2005, when he made his debut in America.

This season, Ovechkin took part in 39 matches, in which he scored 26 goals and gave 28 assists. In total, during his career in the NHL, the 36-year-old striker spent 1236 meetings and hit the opponents’ gates 756 times.
