Alex Ovechkin’s Historic Hat Trick, Team Contributions, and Capitals’ Dominance Over Pens & Oilers



In the latest episode of Locked On Capitals, excitement is building around Alex Ovechkin, who recently scored a hat trick in a 7-3 victory against the Edmonton Oilers. This impressive performance marks a historic milestone, making Ovechkin the first NHL player to score at least 200 goals across three decades and bringing his career total to 882 goals, just 13 shy of Wayne Gretzky’s all-time record. At 39, Ovechkin continues to play at an elite level, showcasing a “game by game” mentality as he seeks to break records and lead the Capitals to success. The Capitals are also benefiting from strong contributions from the entire team, with players like Tom Wilson, Dylan Strome, and Jakob Chychrun stepping up to ensure a well-rounded offensive attack. Recently, the team achieved an 8-3 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins, with standout performances from Pierre-Luc Dubois and Chychrun, who both made significant contributions on the scoreboard. As the Capitals gear up for the final stretch of the regular season, the atmosphere is charged with anticipation as they pursue their goals and prepare for the playoffs.

  1. I agree about adding a depth player but I'd also like to add someone who is solid and can play physically. The playoffs are a different beast from the regular season and physicality would be a plus, (both hitting and a willingness to fight when necessary). If the player could get the occasional ugly goal, that would be a plus too.
    LETS GO CAPS!!

  2. I really thought that was the best 60 minutes the Caps played all year. A little careless at the end but really didn’t give the high flying Oilers very much. McDavid looked pretty tired, and the Caps heavy game just wore them down
