Ovechkin milestone thread - 800 and Beyond!

[authentic]

Crazy how he still ended up getting 30 this year just like I predicted after his first hot streak around 3 months ago

 

[ViD]

One more win and the Caps will face the Rangers

 

[1989]

As a fan who didn't get to witness much of the pre-Gretzky era it's great to see that legendary records can still be set and broken.

Ha!! Caps up 1-0 with play off lives on the line. Bruins goalie pulled OV has team mate right there for easy in alone tap in. The Great 8 opts to shoot long himself and misses.
"Me first , team second"

 

[KevinFinnerty]

let's go Ovi get a hat trick tonight

Google "OV misses empty net"
Flat out happened last night. 50 seconds to go in Boston.

Google "OV misses empty net"...... you will see that last night against Bruins with 50 seconds left. He could ( and should) have given it to his linemate for breakaway away easy tap in. OV Shot and missed long shot instead.
What game were you watching ?

 

[Ted Hoffman]

41 goals to catch Gretzky

 

[hi]

Anotha one

 

[Zuluss]

Reverse jinx has worked.
Every time haters make a run at this thread, OV scores in the next game.

[M2Beezy]

What a season from the games best goal scorer ever

 

[BallardEra]

23 in his last 36 for a 52 goal pace over 82 games.

 

[Calderon]

Unmistakable goal scoring touch, lol. Good for the Caps, though, hope they win.

 

[EdJovanovski]

He probably breaks it next season now, insanity

 

[eartotheground]

He probably breaks it next season now, insanity

especially if they keep feeding him and everyone around him continues to pass up shot opportunities. he's too good to fail when he gets that many chances.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

41 goals away in the most important game of the year for the Caps

 

[M2Beezy]

So close to another there, not sure how he missed

 

[saffronleaf]

love that he's not just stat padding but scoring very important goals in the caps' hunt for a playoff spot

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

He will break the record next year.

 

[eartotheground]

idk about that.. they've been padding his stats all year, just happen to also be in the hunt.

Seriously? How many Caps games have you watched this year?

If you're Ovi at the red line and you have an empty net and the guy on the other side of the D man is Connor McMichael, you shoot 100% of the time.
