ARLINGTON, Va. (AP) -Alex Ovechkin has been testing his injured right knee at the Washington Capitals practice facility.
The two-time reigning league MVP was on the ice in a red Capitals sweat suit about 25 minutes before the start of practice Tuesday morning. He skated for less than five minutes, handled a puck or two with his stick and departed for the locker room.
Ovechkin was injured in a knee-to-knee hit in Monday night’s 3-2 win at Carolina. He showed no obvious effects from his injury during his brief skate, but he was not moving at full speed.
The Capitals were expected to discuss Ovechkin’s injury after practice.
