Washington Capitals defenseman Jakob Chychrun lauded Alex Ovechkin for achieving a significant milestone. The Capitals forward has broken the NHL record for most goalies scored on.

ARLINGTON, Va. – Capitals goaltender Logan Thompson has been named the NHL’s First Star for the week ending Jan. 19, the NHL announced today.

Chychrun scored a goal on five shots, added two hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Penguins.

Chychrun joined Grant Paulsen and Danny Rouhier on The Grant and Danny Show on 106.7 The Fan on Wednesday and took the time to express how much he's enjoyed his tenure in the District so far.

Igor Shesterkin made 27 saves and three more in the shootout as the host New York Rangers earned a crucial 1-0 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday night.
