He&#8217;s gone over this mark in seven of his last eight games and is leading the Washington Capitals in shots (60) and chances for (122), per Natural Stat Trick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Utah has been a much-improved defensive team this year but still gives up the 14th-most shots per game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Everyone on Washington is looking to feed its red-hot captain, so don&#8217;t expect an off night after his hat trick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key stat:<\/strong> Ovechkin is averaging 4.12 shots per game this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick picks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Pastrnak anytime goalscorer (-106):<\/strong> Pastrnak is only five goals behind Ovechkin for the league lead and is heating up after a lengthy goalless drought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Czech winger has found the net in two of his last three games and has a stunning 18 shots in that span.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tonight, his Boston Bruins host a Blue Jackets team allowing the fourth-most goals per game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Elvis Merzlikins is between the pipes for Columbus and his 2.92 GAA and .898 SV% both rank outside of the top 30. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pastrnak&#8217;s 156 goals since the start of the 2022-23 season are third only to Auston Matthews and Leon Draisaitl.
