Ovechkin played the games. If Lemieux scored 80 in 80 it might be him, but he only had 4 more goals in a much higher scoring season.

Regarding league scoring, the Capitals played in the by far weakest division of the by far weaker conference in '08. To his credit Ovechkin scored also against other opponents, but nonetheless it was an easy schedule for him.
