Regular Season:
Playoffs:
Key Stat: Ovechkin scored a League-high 48 goals to win his 9th Maurice “Rocket” Richard Trophy (and seventh in the last eight seasons) as the League’s leading goal scorer.
The Good: Alex Ovechkin once again led the League in goals and led his team to another Division title, a dual accomplishment that usually puts a player squarely in the in the Hart Trophy conversation but, for a second-straight year and third time overall, that wasn’t the case for Ovechkin (he did finish 13th in Hart voting, garnering a fourth-place and three fifth-place votes).
