Ovechkin lands 4th straight Richard Trophy

One day, there should be a trophy named after Alex Ovechkin.

The Washington Capitals superstar sat out Sunday against the Anaheim Ducks, but as the regular season officially concluded, Ovechkin got that which belongs to him: the Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophy as the NHL's best goal-scorer.

Ovechkin finished his season in style Saturday night, scoring a hat trick to reach the 50-goal mark for the third straight season, and seventh time in his career. Only two other players in league history have hit that mark seven times, and you may have heard of them: Wayne Gretzky and Mike Bossy.

"The Great Eight" finished with a career-low 21 assists, but he can still score goals like no other player in the league. This year's honor is the sixth time he's won the Richard Trophy since its inception in 1998.

It was a season to remember for Ovechkin, as his Capitals won the Presidents' Trophy. On a personal level, Ovechkin became the highest-scoring Russian-born player in NHL history, passing Sergei Fedorov, and scored the 500th goal of his career in January.
