Double Olympic champion Alexander Kozhevnikov believes that Washington Capitals shows good performance in the NHL regular season, despite the poor performance of the team captain Alexandra Ovechkina .
Washington, with 31 points in 25 matches, is in eighth place in the Eastern Conference standings. This season, 38-year-old Ovechkin played 25 games and scored 16 (5+11) points with a utility rating of -2.
— Despite Ovechkin’s poor performance, Washington regularly scores points. The Capitals are currently performing better than last season. Alexander must play for the team. Russian fans are waiting for Ovechkin’s personal results. And “Washington” sometimes looks good,” Kozhevnikov quotes Vprognoze.ru.
