Ovechkin scored a goal in the contest against Amkal, which was a team full of social media stars and bloggers. Dynamo won the exhibition contest by a score of 5-0 and the fans voted Ovechkin as the MVP.

Ovechkin was hurt late in the season against the Maple Leafs and missed the last three games of the regular campaign before he returned for all six playoff games. The winger had a goal and five assists in the six games after scoring 50 goals and adding 40 assists in 77 games in the regular season. 

Ovechkin missed the final three games of the regular season after suffering an upper-body injury against the Maple Leafs. He finished the season with 50 goals and 90 points in 77 games as he hit the 50-goal mark for the ninth time in his NHL career, tying Wayne Gretzky and Mike Bossy for first in all-time 50-goal seasons.

"Everything is moving in the right direction. He had another no-limitation practice," said coach Peter Laviolette after Monday's session. "There's no restrictions on him out there. And so you hope that tomorrow he wakes up and feels good...he's had two really good days, as you guys have seen." Ovechkin skated alongside Evgeny Kuznetsov and Conor Sheary for a second straight practice.
