Description
Moscow residents are "proud" after ice hockey player Alex Ovechkin scored his 895th goal in the US National Hockey League, smashing the all-time record. The Washington Capitals ace made history after scoring a goal early in the second period of a clash with New York Islanders on 6 April. Some in Moscow hope the achievement will "offer a chance for potential improvement in relations" between the US and Russia. Another interviewee says: "It doesn’t concern me at all. He plays in America, and I couldn’t care less about America." IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
