Washington Capitals forward Alex Ovechkin pocketed a pair of power-play goals Saturday afternoon as the Capitals beat the Flyers 6-3. With those two goals, Ovechkin is now just one goal behind Marcel Dionne for the fifth-most career regular-season goals scored in league history and 11 goals behind Brett Hull, who sits in fourth place. While Ovechkin's 0.58 goals per game pace this season is his lowest mark since the 2016-2017 season, it is still good enough to be the third-best scoring rate in the league this season. Ovechkin also picked up an assist on a goal from Dmitry Orlov in the second period. With five points and 14 shots in his last three games, Ovechkin is still every bit the premium fantasy asset you would expect him to be.--Russ Ivanac - RotoBaller
