Ovechkin injured
Rossi and Kasper celebrate victories in the NHL
Marco Rossi and Marco Kasper have both scored victories in the North American ice hockey league NHL. Rossi celebrated a 5:3 victory with the Minnesota Wild at the Edmonton Oilers on Thursday (local time). Minnesota's 13th win in the 19th game of the season against the pre-season finalists saw the 23-year-old Vorarlberg native's team consolidate second place in the Western Conference. Kasper was able to celebrate a late 2:1 home win against the New York Islanders.
In Edmonton, superstar Leon Draisaitl put the hosts ahead after just 27 seconds. But Minnesota equalized through Matt Boldy (10th) in the first period, after which Marcus Foligno (24th), Marcus Johansson (30th) and Frederick Gaudreau (38th, 50th) scored a brace to put the visitors on the road to victory. Rossi (23) was on the ice for about a quarter of an hour.
The Red Wings ended their three-game losing streak with a late goal from Lucas Raymond 52 seconds before the end of the game. It was Detroit's eighth win of the season. The 20-year-old Kasper saw 16:52 minutes of ice time.
Ovechkin has to take a longer break
Superstar Alexander Ovechkin, on the other hand, is facing an extended injury layoff. The 39-year-old Russian suffered a broken left fibula in Monday's 6-2 away win at Utah HC and will miss four to six weeks, the Washington Capitals announced. Ovechkin has 868 NHL goals, just 26 shy of Wayne Gretzky's all-time scoring record (894).
