Alex Ovechkin wants the Washington Capitals to be a superteam. That is what GM Brian MacLellan has been trying to do, bringing in players like Pierre-Luc Dubois and Andrew Mangiapane.

However, Ovechkin wasn't too thrilled with these signings and sarcastically said he wants Connor Mcdavid from the Edmonton Oilers and Sidney Crosby from the Pittsburgh Penguins.

«I want to see McDavid and Crosby»: Ovechkin on off-season additions 👀

The priority around Ovechkin is his quest to break Wayne Gretzky's goal record, one he's 42 shy of breaking. But it's not just about individual history. Ovechkin also wants Washington to be Stanley Cup contenders so he can have another realistic shot at a championship, and give that 2018 Stanley Cup ring a friend on his mantle.

Alex Ovechkin since the all-star break:

� 22g | 12a | 36pts in 35 games
� 121 shots (18.2 shooting %)
� 72 hits (73rd in NHL)
� +4 net penalties
� more takeaways than giveaways
� 5th in NHL in goals

He's still one of the best goal-scorers in the sport at 38 years old.

Obviously, it's not happening, but you can't stop a man from dreaming of how adding Crosby and McDavid would instantly make the Capitals front-runners for the Cup.
