Ovechkin's agent spoke about the hockey player's condition after his injury

Russian forward Alexander Ovechkin, who plays as captain for the Washington Capitals, feels normal after being injured in a National Hockey League (NHL) game. This was told on November 20 by the agent of the hockey player Gleb Chistyakov.

"Everything is normal, he is in a working mood," - quoted Chistyakov agency TASS.

The match "Washington Capitals" - "Utah" was held on November 19 in Salt Lake City at the arena "Delta Center" and ended with a score of 6:2 in favor of the capital club. Then Ovechkin scored a double and thus repeated the record of Czech hockey player Jaromir Jagr, scoring pucks in the gates of 178 different goalies in NHL games.

In addition, the Russian reduced the gap between him and Canadian Wayne Gretzky to 26 goals. The total number of scored pucks in the regular season amounted to 868.

However, in the third period, Ovechkin injured his knee in a collision with Utah forward Jack McBain and was forced to leave the ice with the help of another player. Washington Capitals coach Spencer Carbery later revealed that Ovechkin was being examined after the injury.
