Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin waved off a farewell handshake from Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins after Sunday's 3-0 victory, signaling he hasn't decided on retirement. The 40-year-old NHL legend announced last week he'll make his decision in the offseason after consulting with family and the Capitals. Sunday's game at Capital One Arena was potentially Ovechkin's final home game if he chooses to retire.

Fans serenaded Ovechkin with 'one more year!' chants throughout the game, which featured video tributes chronicling his 21-season rivalry with Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. Ovechkin responded with a smile, saying 'I will think about it.' The Capitals swept their weekend home-and-home series against Pittsburgh, giving Washington 93 points with one game remaining. They need to win Tuesday in Columbus and have the Philadelphia Flyers lose their final two games to secure third place in the Metropolitan Division.

If Washington finishes third, Ovechkin and Crosby would meet in the first round for the fifth time in their careers. Each previous playoff series between them resulted in a Stanley Cup for the winner. Center Connor McMichael scored two third-period goals in the win, including an empty-netter assisted by Ovechkin. The Capitals consulted with the Penguins before the series to plan tributes, including a video message from Crosby and Ovechkin thanking fans for '21 years of excitement.'
