Crosby stated that he is pulling for his adversary to achieve hockey history by breaking Wayne Gretzky's 894-goal career scoring record.
"I hope he does. I told him today that I hope he does," said Crosby, who was attending the NHL players media tour here with Ovechkin. "It would be awesome. He's in range."
"He can score anywhere from inside the blue line," he said.
He also ends the interview with a funny joke.
"I just hope that all his goals that he gets are against the other teams, as he's trying to add towards it," Crosby said.
