MOSCOW, October 6 - RIA Novosti. The head coach of the Ufa hockey club Salavat Yulaev and former Washington Capitals forward Viktor Kozlov said that it would be great if Alexander Ovechkin finished his career with Dynamo Moscow.
On Monday, 41-year-old Ovechkin announced that this season will be his last in the National Hockey League (NHL). In 2025, the forward admitted that he would not renew his contract with Washington, which expired in the summer of 2026, and would return to Dynamo Moscow, of which he was a graduate.
“It would be great if Alexander returned. The fact that he had such a legendary career in North America is no secret - the guy broke all the records, he has just a little left before the next one. I wish him good luck in this. If Sasha returns, as I understand it, he has a dream to finish playing for Dynamo, then that will also be super,” Kozlov said at a press conference, a video of which was published on the official page of PHC CSKA in "VKontakte".
