Travis Konecny explains why he went after Ovechkin after his empty net goal

Last night the Washington Capitals were in Philadelphia to take on the Flyers, and the game ended with a 4-1 win for the Capitals.

It was a close game until the final minutes when Alexander Ovechkin potted two empty-net goals to score his 14th & 15th of the season, which was his 794th and 795th of his career, bringing him to 99 goals to reach #99 now.

When Ovechkin scored his second empty net goal, he skated the puck in to the net instead of taking a shot, which Flyers forward Travis Konecny was not too pleased with. He went after Ovechkin at the end for this move and caused a bit of a scrum.

I mean, it might of not have looked as bad, I just didn't like I personally thought that he deked it and put it on his backhand, but maybe it wasn't as bad as I thought

Was this worth getting upset over? Ovechkin is chasing the great ones record and wanted to ensure it was a definite goal so he skated to the net.
