Capitals' Alex Ovechkin: Tickles twine on power play
Ovechkin scored his 18th goal of the season, fifth on the man advantage, in Thursday's 4-3 shootout loss to Minnesota. Ovechkin scored his third goal in four games since returning from a fractured fibula Dec. 28. The right-shot sniper's marker Thursday was his 871st of his NHL career -- Ovi is now just 24 goals away from breaking Wayne Gretzky's all-time record. The Capitals have 44 games remaining in 2024-25, and considering Ovechkin's ability to score in bunches, it wouldn't be surprising to see the 39-year-old score a record-setting 895th career goal this season. Even after missing 16 games, the three-time Hart Trophy winner leads the Capitals with 18 goals, and he's added 10 helpers and a plus-14 rating through 22 appearances.... See More ... See Less -
Capitals' Alex Ovechkin: Scores again Sunday
Ovechkin scored a goal on eight shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Red Wings. Ovechkin has two goals across two games since he returned from a fractured fibula. The superstar winger logged 20:22 of ice time Sunday, so it appears he's back up to full speed after being eased into action Saturday in Toronto. Ovechkin has 17 goals, 27 points, 74 shots on net, 48 hits and a plus-16 rating through 20 appearances. He doesn't appear to have missed a beat during his absence, so fantasy managers shouldn't hesitate to have him active every time the Capitals take the ice.... See More ... See Less -
Capitals' Alex Ovechkin: Chase back on with empty-netter
Ovechkin scored an empty-net goal on three shots and added three hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs. Ovechkin missed 16 games with a fractured fibula and was eased back in with just 14:58 of ice time Saturday. That didn't stop him from depositing an empty-netter at 16:37 of the third period to secure the win. The 39-year-old is at 16 goals, 26 points, 66 shots on net, 47 hits and a plus-15 rating through 19 appearances this season. Ovechkin is 26 goals away from passing Wayne Gretzky on the all-time list, and if he can shake off the rust quickly, Capitals fans are in for a fun second half of the season as he continues his pursuit....

Capitals' Alex Ovechkin: Won't return before Christmas
Ovechkin (fibula) has been cleared for contact but won't be available until after the NHL's Christmas break, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports Friday. Ovechkin skating in a regular sweater at Friday's practice session led to some speculation he might be ready to play either Sunday or Monday against the Kings or Bruins, respectively. Unfortunately, fans and fantasy players alike will have to wait until Dec. 28 against the Maple Leafs, at the earliest, for the world-class sniper's return to action.... See More ... See Less -
Capitals' Alex Ovechkin: Sheds non-contact sweater
Ovechkin (lower leg), who has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Hurricanes, donned a regular jersey during the Capitals' morning skate Friday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports. Head coach Spencer Carbery said Thursday that Ovechkin would be unavailable against Carolina, but Friday marked the first time that the 39-year-old has practiced in a regular jersey since fracturing his fibula in mid-November. Although the league's Christmas break is looming, Ovechkin will presumably be in the mix to return Sunday against the Kings or Monday against Boston if he feels good following Friday's workload....

Prior to his absence, the veteran winger had racked up 15 goals over 18 outings this season as he continues his pursuit of Wayne Gretzky's 894 goals.

Ovechkin (fibula) remains in a non-contact jersey at practice Thursday, according to Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.

Capitals' Alex Ovechkin: Lands on IR
Ovechkin (lower leg) was designated for injured reserve Wednesday. Ovechkin's placement on IR shouldn't come as a surprise considering he was deemed week-to-week by the Caps on Tuesday. After managing just 31 goals last season -- a low mark given his lofty standards -- the elite winger was rolling to open the 2024-25 campaign with 15 goals in 18 contests. It's not only a blow for Washington but for Ovechkin, who looked to be closing in on the all-time goal-scoring record held by Wayne Gretzky (894).... See More ... See Less -

Ovechkin scored two goals Saturday in an 8-1 win over the Blues. Ovechkin has eight goals in his past seven games to give him 863 in his career.

Ovechkin's first goal in the second period was the game-winner, and his second came on the power play early in the third frame. Ovechkin is roaring to Gretzky's record rather than limping toward it like last year. Enjoy the ride.... See More ... See Less -

Ovie is red hot right now, finding the back of the net in five straight contests while racking up six goals and 11 points over that stretch, and the surge has carried him to 861 career goals -- just 33 back of Wayne Gretzky at the top of the all-time list....
