I don’t blame him. Team needs to get the top 6 forward improvements first, and if they do, I bet he’s back. Otherwise…come back to miss the playoffs again? No way. Regardless of Ovi’s decision, the team needs those top 6 improvements. No more excuses.
In a new interview with FONBET at the Russian Cup Superfinal, Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin said he will have a decision on his NHL future in July.

Capitals announce they will not be renewing assistant coach Kirk Muller’s contract, as he “expressed his desire to explore other opportunities within the National Hockey League.”
DFO Rundown (Apr 22): Sounds like St. Louis is looking to retool and not rebuild. They will continue to explore trades for Colton Parayko, he wants to stay in the West. Pagnotta says the player the most likely to get moved is Jordan Binnington. #stlblues#NHL
@samb999 Then whatever Osh thinks is more likely. Caps can afford it. He has made Ted so filthy rich it’s the least they can do. He won’t handicap the team because he wants to come back and be competitive. Really not worried about it. Real question is what do they use 1st rd picks on?
Re-sign Liljegren. Call up Trineyev. Swap Mikey + 1st + X via trade for Robertson. Trade 1st ++ for Thomas and Parayko? See what Sandin could fetch? Parascak, Cristall, and Miro (sadly) are all trade bait.
Alex Ovechkin said sons Sergei and Ilya keep asking, “Dad, are you coming back?” Said he tells them the same as everyone else: “We’ll see.”
“They’re excited. They want me to come back because they love the city, love the team, love the boys.”
@_rydougg Definitely starts somewhere around there. Alternatively, I wonder if instead of sending too many firsts out for Robo, if GMCP swaps RFA rights (Mikey) for Dallas RFA rights to Robo…. So many variables. Also not opposed to flipping Anaheim first for a 2027 first. Ship out DC 1st.
