Two-time Olympic biathlon champion Dmitry Vasilyev has commented on Washington Capitals hockey player Alexander Ovechkin`s intention to return to the KHL after his current contract with the club expires.
Vasilyev stated that Ovechkin`s return to Russia and the national league would be a significant event and a response to a certain tennis player. He highlighted that despite living in the USA for 20 years, Ovechkin still desires to return to Russia, demonstrating love and remembrance of his homeland, unlike Kasatkina.
Vasilyev believes Kasatkina should be more careful with her statements, correct her behavior, and take inspiration from true patriots like Ovechkin. He suggests that athletes making questionable statements should learn from Ovechkin to regain perspective.
