Athletistic / Hockey. Washington Capitals captain Alexander Ovechkin spoke about his own performance. The forward has scored just five goals in 28 regular season appearances this season. He has failed to score in the last 13 matches, which is an anti-record for a Russian in the league.

Ovechkin opened up about his record-breaking goalless streak

“The most important thing for us is to score points and achieve victories. It is better to qualify for the playoffs than to score 20 goals and be eliminated from the fight.

My job is to score. If I don’t score, it means I have to do something else to help the team win.

It’s clear our power play isn’t going well right now. I just need to score, it will happen one day, ”quotes Ovechkin, according to the press service of the NHL.
