Player Discussion Alexander Ovechkin (Vol. 4)

Spent my lunch break compiling data to use in that Lemieux-Ovechkin thread just to realize it got locked.

Here's the data anyways. Someone made a claim that Ovechkin played against worse goaltenders. Data shows that Ovechkin actually played and scored against significantly better goaltenders.

Legend:
Blue = goalie won a Vezina during the players career
Green = At least 3x top-10 Vezina finishes
Yellow = never finished top-10

Only included Vezina and top-10 finishes from during the time the player played. Did not include Lemieux's 98/99/00 years, or 02 (only scored 6 goals).

Varly with some of those other goalies is pretty impressive.

Also just made me remember how much I dont like Ray Emery for his sucker punch on Holtby.

Thats a fun list for Ovie victims
 
What's more important: celebrating a historical event and giving it the time it deserves, or making sure a regular season game against the Blue Jackets ends in 2 hours 35 minutes instead of 2 hours 38 minutes?
I would like everyone to continue to talk this into existence. Me and my dad have tickets for the 4/12 game in Cbus tried to thread that needle 2 months ago hoping we're there for a big goal!!
 
$400-500 cheap seats you think the Jacket fans care about a fast face off and a couple of min longer of a game.

Ovie can do the ending of Slap shot and go Magic Mike. Hes earned it.

Reactions: Ridley Simon
Tim Gleason/Mike Weber goals away!

Like/Love to see Ovie go on a heater and score like back 2 back 2 back hattricks and put this away...The Great8 can do it...Good Luck to Alexander Ovechkin and the Caps...been a closet fan since their inception in 1974
That'd be hilarious with the "we're going to start going to games when he's X close" league. Blast it out and be like "what?"
