So last night I ended uon hockeyDB and I noticed 2 things
#1 holy shit Ovechkin will be 39 next month.
And #2 there are 3 guys that I can't help but wonder if they don't miss 3 years is He chasing them, and would the record even be in reach?.
The first one is Mario Lemieux
.
He finished with 690 goals in 915 games he got to play maybe 60% of his career, then cancer sidelined him for 3 years.
I think there is an argument to be made that cancer robbed him of the all time goals record.
Without cancer he finishes with at least 1500 and as many as 1700 games played in my opinion, and if he does that I'm not sure Ovechkin isn't chasing Mario.
And I'm not sure there is a chase because if Mario doesn't miss 3 years that record could be out of reach.
