Turns out we didn’t have to wait until Tuesday morning to find out more about Alexander Ovechkin’s injury; the Caps this afternoon sent out an update that sounds more ominous than the report we had when we left the rink last night: he’s out “week to week” with an “upper body strain.”
“We have to buckle down,” Bruce Boudreau said on Monday. “A goal a game he scores, so we got to play better defense and cannot allow four or five goals a game. You have to win 3-1 and 2-1 and if you get lucky sometimes make it a 4-2 game. I think we have enough character players who understand what we will have to do without Alex.”
