Spencer Carbery said the goal against Columbus would be a springboard for Ovechkin
Washington Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery responded to team captain Alexander Ovechkin’s goal that ended his record goalless streak. The specialist’s words are quoted by journalist Ben Raby on social networks X (formerly Twitter).
According to the Canadian, the puck could become a potential springboard for the Russian. “Alexander was one of the best in our team today. He made dangerous shots, got good exposure, the puck literally found him, it seemed like he had better control of it,” Carbery said.
Ovechkin scored a goal on the night of Friday, December 22, in a meeting against the Columbus Blue Jackets. This puck allowed him to break a record 14-game goalless streak in the NHL regular season.
Ovechkin scored his 828th goal in the NHL regular season and closed the gap with Wayne Gretzky, who leads in this indicator. The retired Canadian has 894 goals to his name.
