How to Watch Washington Capitals Games Live Online Without Cable in 2024
There could not have been a worst time for Alex Ovechkin to go down with a serious injury. Ovi was on a tear, with 15 goals in his first 18 games(!) before suffering a broken left fibula. That has him out for four-to-six weeks with a return set sometime in late December or early January. Ovi needs just 26 goals to tie Wayne Gretzky’s goal record of 893, and 27 goals to become the NHL’s all-time goal leader. In now seems to be a question of when, not if Ovi breaks a record many thought untouchable. In the mean time, the Washington Capitals just keep winning, sitting first in the Metro division with a 19-6-2 record and one loss in their last seven games.
