We don’t know whether this will be Alex Ovechkin’s final season as a Washington Capital or not, but there’s never a bad time to reflect back on two decades of being treated to this amazing talent. So each game day throughout the 2025-26 season, we’re going to be picking an Ovechkin moment to remember against that day’s opponent as we look back at an incredible career.
Alex Ovechkin having a multi-goal game isn’t exactly novel; the Caps’ captain has been known for scoring in bunches, terrorizing opposing goalies over the course of his career. Every multi-goal game of the 2024-25 season, however, seemed to take on a little extra sparkle as he set his sights on Wayne Gretzky’s record.
