Alex Ovechkin and Marc-André Fleury shared a funny moment during Thursday’s game between the Washington Capitals and Minnesota Wild. In the second period, Ovechkin scored his 18th goal of the season with a power-play snap at 15:08. Dylan Strome assisted him to tie the game 2-2.

Ovechkin then joked with Fleury in the final minute of the second period after Fleury stopped a rebound.

"I told him, 'I need one more,'" Ovechkin said after the game, via Monumental Sports Network's Ethan Cadeaux. "He said, 'You already got one.'"
