While Alex Ovechkin won't play tonight, it appears as though he will make his return to the lineup on Tuesday.
Tarik El-Bashir of the Washington Post is reporting that Alex Ovechkin is out tonight in New Jersey, meaning the Capitals superstar will miss his 6th consecutive game with an upper body injury.
Even without the presence of Ovechkin, Washington is currently riding a four game win streak. However, his return to the lineup would have come at a good time had he been able to suit up because the team will be missing veteran forward Mike Knuble after he broke a finger during Friday night’s win over the Wild.
Cory Masisak reported moments later through his twitter account that it looks as though Ovechkin will make his return to the lineup on Tuesday when the Capitals head to Madison Square Garden to take on the Rangers.
