Capitals' Alex Ovechkin Expected Thursday Preseason Debut Against Boston Bruins

News summary

Alex Ovechkin is expected to play in the Washington Capitals' preseason game against the Boston Bruins after recovering from a lower-body injury that kept him out of earlier preseason matches. The Capitals aim for Ovechkin to participate in two exhibition games ahead of their October 8 season opener, which is also viewed as an ideal milestone opportunity for him to approach 900 career goals. Despite missing some preseason time, Ovechkin remains a key player for the team, which is currently undefeated in preseason play. Other Capitals players, including Sonny Milano, are also vying for roster spots with some showing strong preseason performances. Ovechkin was held out of the previous game against Columbus as a precaution but is expected to be cleared for the season opener. The upcoming home game against the Bruins is significant both for Ovechkin's return and for players on the roster fringe to make an impression.
