Ovechkin's Scoring Struggles Continue as Capitals' Star Struggles to Find the Net
Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin is experiencing a scoring slump, with only five goals in 23 games this season, the lowest at this point in his 19-year NHL career. Coach Spencer Carbery is concerned about Ovechkin's drop in production and is considering various options to help him regain his scoring touch, including changing his linemates and experimenting with his position on the power play. Ovechkin's shooting percentage is also at a career-low, but Carbery remains focused on finding ways to support Ovechkin and improve the team's offensive performance.
