Ovechkin’s Still Got It! 44 Goals at 39 | Kuznetsov’s Next Stop? | Capitals Offseason Buzz

Alex Ovechkin is already back in the gym preparing for the 2025-26 NHL season after a historic campaign where he scored 44 goals in just 66 games, surpassing Wayne Gretzky as the NHL’s all-time leading goal scorer. Entering the final year of his contract at age 40, Ovi remains a dominant force, leading the league in even-strength goals per 60 and tying Gordie Howe’s age-39 goal record. Though his future beyond this season is uncertain, he’s focused on performing at a high level again for the Capitals.Meanwhile, former Capital Evgeny Kuznetsov is weighing offers, with the Montreal Canadiens emerging as a possible destination. Kuzy, now 33, is looking for a bounce-back deal—no PTOs—with hopes of reuniting with Ivan Demidov and boosting Montreal’s center depth. The Caps also added KHL scoring standout Sheldon Rempal on a two-way deal to bolster AHL Hershey, bringing in proven offensive talent who could serve as valuable forward depth.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.
