Future Hockey Hall of Famers Alex Ovechkin and Sidney Crosby topped the NHL in jersey sales during the 2022-23 regular season.
According to ESPN's Greg Wyshynski, Ovechkin was first and Crosby was second, followed by Boston Bruins forward David Pastrnak in third, New Jersey Devils forward Jack Hughes in fourth and Toronto Maple Leafs forward Auston Matthews in fifth.
Wyshynski noted that Ovechkin has now ranked first in jersey sales two years in a row. The Washington Capitals star was aided this season by not only the Caps releasing two new jersey styles, but also his own ascent up the all-time goal scoring list.
