Athletistic / Hockey. Former Washington Capitals coach Bruce Boudreau shared his thoughts on team captain Alexander Ovechkin’s game. This season, the Russian has only scored five goals so far. He repeated his own record streak, failing to score in 10 consecutive matches.

“I think it’s a slight panic. But sometimes it’s amazing how quickly a person ages. In Anaheim, I worked with Teemu Selanne. He was the leading shooter on the roster. elite in the first season. And in the second season it went somewhere, he I was over 40 then.

Mikko Koivu had a great season in Minnesota. And the next season he slowed down so much that he ended up in the fourth season. Sometimes a person gets old. But I don’t think that’s going to happen with Ovechkin,” The Athletic quotes the coach.
