American journalist Score John Matish has come to the defense of Washington Capitals National Hockey League (NHL) forward Alexander Ovechkin after a poor start to the season.
“It’s not all down to Ovechkin alone. With an average age of 30.2 years, the Caps are the second-oldest team in the NHL. Matis said no one at the club was at the peak of their powers.
On October 28, in a National Hockey League (NHL) regular season game against the Minnesota Wild, Ovechkin had an assist. Russia has 2 goals and 4 assists in total this season. His team has only three wins in seven matches.
Ovechkin, who played in 74 regular season games in the NHL last season, scored 42 goals and 33 assists. However, this did not help the Capitals reach the tournament’s play-offs.
Washington will play the San Jose Sharks in its next game.
