NHL’s runaway scoring steamtrain, Alexandr Ovechkin, is keeping very much on track. The Muscovite again found the net in Washington's 4-3 win over Philadelphia in the battle of the Eastern conference's big guns.

It was compatriot Victor Kozlov who pretty much sealed the deal for the visiting Capitals though, making it 3-1 a few minutes into the final period.

And a league leading 46th goal for Alexandr the Gr8 came soon afterwards. Ovechkin slammed home his own rebound for the commanding lead.

Phily did make things respectable late on with 2 goals of their own but by then the damage was done.
