    I have think the Caps will get smoked in a lot of games and those will provide times for Ovi to score garbage goals. I wonder what is motivation is with his team not really being all that good.

    If it wasn't for 2 lockouts and a Covid 19 shortened season Ovie would've broken The Great One's goal scoring record by now. Wayne Gretzky got lucky he played in an era where there were no lockouts and no shortened season. External factors outside of Ovechkin control will prevent him from setting the all time goal scoring record.

    This makes me wonder how many fewer goals would Wayne would've tallied had he had to deal with the same external factors Ovechkin had to face in 2 lockouts plus a shortened season as well. Wayne got lucky he never had to deal with 2 lockouts or play in a shortened season like Ovie had to.

    Is that gonna be Ovi’s new spot to stand and wait for pucks to come to him?

    Fantastic for Ove.

    It's also a perfect example of why Toronto has had its issues at the start of the season, with all 4 Leafs skaters puck-watching and coasting toward the boards, leaving Ove wide open for the easy tap-in.

    Ovi has always been a consistent and streaky player. He might score only 3 goals in ten games, but then he scores 9 in the next 10. I haven't watched him play this year, and I have heard that he looks a bit slower than usual, but I have no doubt that he will score 40 goals minimum this season.

    The greatness of a POS who needs 15 shots and to not be defended to score ONE goal. AMAZING ! Amazing season so far Cap fans. Enjoy !

    The question for all American Ovie's fans: why don't you ask yourself any questions on Ovie's stance on Putin Ukraine invasion?

    That's some horrid defensive zone play by the Leafs. 16 is crowding when the Caps enter the zone and has no hustle to play zone and cover the empty ice. At 0:10 you have all four Leafs in the corner. No discipline. I mean this is how mites play.

    Mans are all staring at the puck like their in houseleague instead of staying on their man and playing the box 😂

  27. Mulukkis

    23 shots and a disallowed goal due to him diving headfirst into the net just to get 1 goal. Great value Caps!

    Саше и Вашингтону сил и терпения! Давай давай Саша!!
