OVECHKIN CONTINUES THE GR8 CHASE WITH HAT TRICK AGAINST OILERS
With his family in the crowd at Capital One Arena, Alex Ovechkin continued The Gr8 Chase by netting a hat trick and moving into a tie with Jaromir Jagr (135) for the most game-winning goals in NHL history as Washington (38-11-8, 84 points) overtook idle Winnipeg (40-14-3, 83 points) for first place in the League standings. Ovechkin now has 882 career goals – 200 of which have come since Jan. 1, 2020 – and is just 13 away from breaking Wayne Gretzky’s NHL record.
* Ovechkin notched his 32nd career hat trick – and first against the Oilers – and tied Phil Esposito for the fifth most in NHL history behind Gretzky (50), Mario Lemieux (40), Mike Bossy (39) and Brett Hull (33). Ovechkin now has a hat trick against 20 different franchises, which is tied with Hull for the most in NHL history.
* Ovechkin (29-17—46 in 41 GP) owns a goals-per-game rate of 0.71 this season, which puts him on pace to pass Gretzky at home versus Chicago on April 4. Ovechkin (882-714—1,596 in 1,467 GP) owns a career average of 0.60 and that rate has him tracking to break the record on April 12 (at CBJ).
