Kamensky – about Ovechkin’s goalless streak: “He couldn’t forget how to score in one or two games”
Olympic hockey champion Valery Kamensky believes that the goalless streak of the Russian captain of the Washington Capitals, Alexander Ovechkin, is associated with a decline in the game of the entire team.
Ovechkin’s goalless streak is eight games. The last time the 40-year-old Russian scored was on December 3.
“I don’t see anything wrong, it’s hockey, it happens.” The team was in first place, now a little tired and fell into a small hole. We need to get out of it faster, and that’s coaching’s work. You can’t go through the whole season smoothly. Now this situation will be overcome – and everything will start again, they will score and win. Normal sports environment.
Sasha has already scored everything he can and will score more. He couldn’t forget how to score in one or two games. It happens that it doesn’t work,” Soviet Sport quotes Kamensky.
Ovechkin played 36 matches this season and scored 31 points (14 goals + 17 assists).
Washington is third in the Eastern Conference standings with 43 points. The Capitals have suffered six losses in their last eight games.
