'The man wants 1000 career goals": Fans react to Alex Ovechkin's retirement rumors

Photo Via Getty Images After Alex Ovechkin firmly dismissed rumors about his possible retirement, fans wasted no time responding, and they have one clear message: he's not done yet. While the Washington Capitals captain made headlines for shutting down speculation in a recent interview with Sport-Express, the hockey world has now shifted its attention to what fans believe is Ovechkin's true goal, reaching 1,000 goals and beyond, literally. Fans confident Alex Ovechkin remains determined to chase 1,000 career goals Ovechkin's statement that the retirement rumors are 'pure nonsense' resonated strongly with fans, who quickly turned the conversation from 'if' he's retiring to 'how far' he plans to go. For many, the magic number is 1,000. 'The man wants 1000 career goals,' one fan wrote, summing up what countless others echoed online. With 897 goals already scored, Ovechkin is just three away from 900 and fans believe that's nowhere near the end. 'I think he wants 1000 goals. So if it's possible, he'll return after next season. If he needs 2–3 more years, then back to Russia he goes.' That blend of belief and realism is shared by many who think a final chapter in the KHL with Dynamo Moscow remains possible, but only after history is made in the NHL. Some fans believe Alex Ovechkin won't stop at 1,000 goals and could aim even higher While most fans are focused on Ovechkin breaking the 1,000-goal barrier, a few are daring to dream even bigger. 'He intends to score at a 30+ goal per season clip, play until he's 50 to pass 1,100 career regular season goals,' another fan boldly claimed. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy Resmed AirSense 11 with flat 20% off ResMed Buy Now Undo 'He wants to set a record that will never be broken.' Though that number may be out of reach, the sentiment captures exactly how fans view Ovechkin: as a relentless competitor, a generational talent, and a living legend who's far from finished. The retirement talk may have sparked a few headlines, but Ovechkin's response has only fueled fan excitement. Whether it's 1,000 goals or more, supporters believe the Great 8 isn't skating off into the sunset just yet, he's still chasing greatness, and they're ready to follow every goal of the journey.

Vijayawada: Chief minister Chandrababu Naidu directed officials to take swift action to restore and revitalize the AP Fiber Net project. He charged that the previous government had completely derailed the AP Fiber Net project, a visionary initiative launched between 2014 and 2019. Reviewing the progress of AP Fibernet activities here on Monday, the chief minister asked the officials to assess the challenges, financial constraints, necessary corrective steps, and new policy directions. He said that the system, designed to benefit the public, students, and government departments, was exploited for political purposes by the previous govt. He pointed out that while there were 8.70 lakh connections before 2019, was dropped to 4.50 lakh during the YSRCP regime. "We managed the organization effectively with just 130 employees and provided over 8 lakh connections. But the YSRCP government created unauthorized posts to accommodate its party workers, expanding the workforce from 130 to 1,350 and misusing public funds. This was a new form of corruption where party affiliates were placed in government roles and used for political work. The fiber network was no exception. Those responsible must be held accountable. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Providers are furious: Internet access without a subscription! Techno Mag Learn More Undo A thorough investigation should be conducted into those appointments, and full transparency must be ensured," directed chief minister. He, however, said that steps must be taken to rectify past mistakes and ensure a better future. He instructed that the current 4,53,525 connections be increased to at least 8–10 lakh. The chief minister approved the integration of AP Fiber Net with the BharatNet (Amended BharatNet Programme – ABP). Under this scheme, the Centre will allocate Rs. 1,900 crore to AP Fiber Net from 2025 to 2035. He also approved the transition of fiber networks in 1692 gram panchayats across Chittoor and Visakhapatnam districts from linear to ring architecture. Additionally, 480 new gram panchayats will be connected using the ring model. The Centre will provide Rs. 430 crore for this phase. GFX *A Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), jointly managed by the Central and State Governments, to oversee these projects should be created: CM *The selection process for set-top box suppliers be completed immediately and that a revenue-sharing model be developed with Local Cable Operators (LCOs) using new set-top boxes: CM *Reintroduce services like virtual classrooms *Andhra Pradesh currently leads the nation in village panchayat connectivity. *Fiber net services have been extended to 12,946 panchayats so far. *The government aims to expand the network to a total of two lakh km. *Andhra Pradesh leads all Indian states in fiber optic network coverage with 78355km, followed by Maharashtra (50,481 km), Tamil Nadu (49,616 km), Gujarat (35,246 km), and Telangana (29,143 km).

Give me a year, I'll fix Bengaluru, says Surya as he slams tunnel road project

Bengaluru: BJP MP Tejasvi Surya Monday launched a blistering attack on the govt, slamming its Rs 17,780 crore tunnel road project and insisting that if he "held as much power as the deputy CM for just one year," he would "solve all problems in Bengaluru". Surya, who represents Bangalore South in the Lok Sabha, called the tunnel project unscientific which serves the elite while burdening the masses. He said the 18km Hebbal-to-Silk Board tunnel road is for "crorepatis of Sadashivanagar and millionaires of Koramangala 4th Block". He said the proposed toll of Rs 660 and the Rs 7,100 crore viability gap funding makes the project economically unjustifiable. "Why should 90% of Bengalureans, who don't own cars, pay for something that only benefits 10%?" he asked.

"This is economic untouchability," he said. "Instead of easing traffic, this project will worsen congestion by encouraging more private vehicles." Surya accused the govt of bypassing due process by pushing ahead without clearance from Bengaluru Metropolitan Land Transport Authority (BMLTA), mandatory under the BMLTA Act. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Forget Furosemide, Use This Household Item To Help Drain Edema Fluid WellnessGuide Learn more Undo "None of the goals under the Comprehensive Mobility Plan have been met, but they are still pushing this tunnel," he said. He alleged large-scale irregularities in preparation of the detailed project report (DPR), which cost Rs 9.5 crore but was allegedly copied from a BMRCL report that cost just Rs 1.6 crore. He said the feasibility report was prepared by a consultant barred in a Madhya Pradesh NHAI project, while the firm behind the DPR is facing a Rs 500 crore scam probe in Jammu and Kashmir. "The DPR was completed before the feasibility study," he said. He also lambasted Congress for neglecting core civic infrastructure. "Over 20 flyovers have been pending for five to six years. At this speed, it'll take 800 years to build 100 flyovers," he said.
