How Alex Ovechkin clawed his way back into the NHL’s goals race this season
The NHL is at it again with its incredible animated graphs.
Tuesday, the league illustrated how Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin fought back into contention in this year’s goals race. Ovechkin, who missed four games early due to a trip to COVID protocol, started the season with seven goals in his first 19 games. On March 12, he was 12 goals behind the leader. Now, after scoring 11 goals in his last 11 games, he sits only five goals behind Auston Matthews (23) for first.
