Alex Ovechkin enters the 2024-25 season 42 goals shy of Wayne Gretzky's record, but may face challenges as he ages and manages workload.
Capitals coach Spencer Carbery believes Ovechkin can score 42 goals this year, emphasizing that despite a slow start, he showed he can rebound.
After a season where Ovechkin was held to the lowest goals of his career, the Capitals have bolstered their lineup to reduce his scoring burden.
General Manager Brian MacLellan noted the necessity for support for Ovechkin, after he experienced a playoff series without a point for the first time.
