The helmets are nothing compared to the rest of the uniform...
The odds of Ovechkin passing Gretzky are probably against him.
But adjusted for era's, there's a pretty good argument that Ovechkin is already closing in on being the greatest goal scorer of all time. I'd rank him as a better goal scorer than Gretzky already.
Not a better player than Gretzky, but certainly the better goal scorer. Probably even by quite a bit.
Picked 53 spots later and he's scored more goals than McLeod this year.
I'd take him over McLeod one for one right now.
That's not to say McLeod is a bum, he's progressing too, but, Abramov has a higher upside IMO
Pure class? Lmfao dude played 2 seasons there. I'd be embarrassed if we did this nonsense for someone like that.
Is that you @My3Sons ?Speak for yourself. I want a Lovejoy tribute after he gets traded.

I don't know if I'd be embarrassed, but I do think it's a little tacky for a guy that was only there for about 15 months. I was actually afraid it wouldn't go over well, as the crowd was really giving it to him when he touched the puck and was out on the ice before that. He got a pretty nice ovation though.
I'm glad we keep those types of videos and tributes relegated to people like Marty and Stevens when they came back working for other teams. And maybe a few others. We did it for Henrique, which was less than a month after he was traded, but he was a pretty popular player here with fans and scored our biggest goal in the last 15 years.
I'm not gonna touch Gomez or Holik in this example, as they signed with the Rangers, but can you imagine if we had done this for Parise after his first game back?
Is that you @My3Sons ?
They showed an Adam Larsson tribute video when he came back as an Oiler, I don’t remember if they did one for Jagr.

I actually didn't even remember that we did one for Larsson, but he did play here for quite a while, so I understood that they did.They showed an Adam Larsson tribute video when he came back as an Oiler, I don’t remember if they did one for Jagr.

I doubt they did one for Jagr. If anything, maybe they announced his name and the fans gave him an ovation, but I highly doubt we gave him an actual tribute video package like we did for Larsson and Henrique.
Everything about that trade just looks like a joke now.He played a total of 118 games and 0 playoff games for them and 58 home games there. I think it's a joke and the fans should have booed the entire thing. Hell they showed a clip of him golfing! Lmfao
Even our organization knows better then to pull that crap with us. A Parise or Kovy video would have booed off the screen.
Not really. It is easy to do, only goes for 1 minute and it is something that will only be shown once.The video tributes are getting a bit much.
The videos are nice. Mangement, Staff, team members, media crew, etc. have all been working with him for a year and a half. Its a way for them all to say their thanks and wish him luck.
