It’s Been Awhile Since Alex Ovechkin’s Scored A Power Play Goal

by Travis Hughes

We've known for a while that Alex Ovechkin is in a bit of a slump when it comes to scoring on the power play, but J.P. over at Japers' Rink actually quantified it for us today.

↵↵Ready to be floored? By my math, Alex Ovechkin has skated 189:30 (as in 3+ 60-minute games worth) on the power-play since his last PP goal.

↵UPDATE: He scored about five hours after this post went up. Awesome.
