Ovechkin and the Capitals

Alexander Ovechkin got his 499th career goal on a overtime winner against the New York Rangers Saturday evening. His 498th goal was a lucky one since Girardi attempted to pass to Moore, but instead got to Ovechkin for a goal. The 499th goal was amazing since Brandon Holtby robbed Stepan of a sure goal on OT and Ovechkin took it and scored the OT winner. Ovechkin looks like he won't stop ever right now as he continues to be consistent with his goal scoring. He and his Capitals have been on a roll as they take over first place with 65 points. Evgeny Kuznetsov has also been a huge part in their in their dominance this season. He has more points than Sidney Crosby which is usually tough. The Capitals this year will probably be serious Stanley Cup contenders this year especially with all the depth they have. Are the Capitals ready for a Stanley Cup run? Is this the year? Will they continue to dominate the NHL? stay tuned.....
