Ovechkin scored a goal, recorded an assist, and fired seven shots on net in Monday's Game 3 loss to Pittsburgh.

EDGE Analysis

Ovie snapped a five-game goal drought with a lethal wrister that beat rookie netminder Matt Murray clean above the shoulder. He also received a whopping 24:21 of ice time but ultimately wasn't able to help the Caps complete their comeback from a 3-0 deficit. Through nine playoff games, Ovechkin now has eight points and an insane 43 shots on goal, and he'll need to play a significant role again Wednesday as the Caps push to even up the series in Game 4.
