Did Alex Ovechkin score? Yes. He scored goal #890.
Plus: Both Jakob Chychrun and Aliaksei Protas joined some new clubs, with Chychrun scoring his 20th of the season and Protas picking up his 30th – new career highs for both.
Minus: The Caps took too many stupid penalties, giving up goals on two of them. It’s fine now that they are top of the league but these are penalties that can’t happen in the playoffs.
Our three stars:
*** Alexander Ovechkin (1G, 2A)
** Jakob Chychrun (2G)
* Alex Tuch (2G)
