Ovechkin Milestone Thread - Passed some guy named Wayne, now NHL goalscoring leader (895 !!!)

[Hippasus]

The Washington colour guy is very annoying to listen to. He does this weird pause when he’s talking. Not a fan

Laughlin? He's one of my favorite commentators, period. Very modest, good hockey knowledge as an ex-NHL player and kid's hockey clinic runner, and funny to boot. Good chemistry with Jo-B.

And he broke his ****in' leg earlier this season.

His ability to stay healthy through all these years, especially how physical his game was for the most of his career, has been a feat in itself. That injury was like his longest time missed since... when?

Joe and Craig are an amazing duo. I love Craig because he doesn’t shy away from complimenting the opposing team when credit is due.

Tuning in and hoping to witness hockey history!

You’re in the minority here, most people love Locker

Not a problem. I am not a fan but happy for you all

Man. #8 and the teammates are just having a great time. It shows that they are 100% invested.

 

[ViD]

I know Ovie is saving 895 for the Columbus game

 

[Bandit]

Not sure who’s a lazier skater at this point. Ovechkin or Maroon.

 

[Hank Plank]

Makes sense, is he even Canadian anymore?

Of course he is just like Mike Myers.

 

[JPeeper]

Why are the refs not just giving Washington PP after PP, we want to see Ovy score. We all know the refs fix games anyway, why not fix this one?

I was thinking that same thing. I can’t imagine there is a player that floats more and is more offensively Successful than OV

 

[Hippasus]

Caps need to get back onto winning ways at this point in the season. It dampens things when they've been losing a lot lately.

If that's true, maybe his high hockey IQ and elite shooting?

He's just so despicable. If only he had some shame he'd retire a long time ago.

No they don't, comfortably in the playoffs save the energy.

 

[Mr Nogatco]

Just checked TM for tic prices. Lately they've been like (or more) than 1st round playoff games.
Singles or pairs you're looking at 200 per person after fees.
I used to have season tix Oh well, keep powder dry for playoffs.

The good news is that if/when he breaks the record, should be able to find tix for the remaining games for below face as scalpers/speculators will get left holding the bag

Yes definitely hockey IQ

 

[Randyne]

Since Jan 27, 2024
Draisaitl GPG .657; GP 108; G 71;
Ovechkin GPG .656; GP 96; G 63.

 

[M2Beezy]

Connor Murphy confirmed Ovie hater. Put the puck in his own net to block Ovechkin from scoring there

 

[JPeeper]

Guy scored on himself to prevent the record tying goal.

LMAO!!!

 

[Cool Hand Puke]

Ovechkin can’t score a PP goal if Chicago scores on themselves. Big brain Move

I’m still amazed with the way he played earlier in his career, full speed ahead, dangling through everyone, hitting everything that moves (and the NHL still being quite dangerous from 2005-10) that he never really got injured. I can almost guarantee he played through some injuries throughout the years that were not aware of, but either way he clearly hasn’t been hurt seriously enough to miss a large amount of games over a 20 year period. It’s almost as impressive as breaking the goal scoring record in the modern era.

 

[Rhaegar Targaryen]

Wow the dman didn’t want Ovie to tie it so bad he scored on his own net

 

[Randyne]

nope.
