Ovie has said he will NOT sit out of a road game to do it at home.
He is 12 goals away and the Caps play 14 times in March

I can't explain what the Caps have done so far this season.No McAvoy, no Lindholm, and Swayman completely checked out? Ovechkin might break it if he's within 5 goals of the record that night
@Aussie Bruin He needs 12 with 23 to play this year. You can't bet gainst him.I still think it's touch and go whether it's going to happen this season, but for sure the Garden has a chance. For the pure drama though I'd prefer it happens in Washington. Main thing is though it must not be an empty netter. That'd be a total bummer.
