Head coach of the Omsk Wings Louis Robitaille shared his memories of Alexander Ovechkin's debut game in the National Hockey League (NHL).
- His first game, like his first season in the NHL, was outstanding. When you are the first overall pick, a lot of pressure comes your way. So, I think scoring a double in his first game allowed him to ease that pressure,” said Robitaille.
In his first game in the league, the Russian forward scored two goals against the Columbus Blue Jackets, contributing to the team's 3-2 victory.
