Alex Ovechkin Tallies Two Points Wednesday
1 year agoWashington Capitals left wing Alex Ovechkin scored in a second consecutive game and tallied an assist as the team beat New Jersey 6-4 on Wednesday. Ovechkin, who played in his 1,500th career game, helped Dylan Strome on the score sheet in the first period and capped off the team's win with an empty-net goal. It's been a slow start to the season from Ovechkin, but he has started to heat up with a four-game point streak. With six games played, the veteran star has notched five total points, scoring two goals with 27 shots. Ovechkin's career shooting percentage is nearly two times better than his current strike rate, so he should hit another level soon.
