Ovechkin Milestone Thread - Countdown to 894

[Firsov99]

Almost a perfect counterattack. So close.

Ovi getting 30 this season would make the heads of several posters on here explode, and I would totally be here for it

 

[BallardEra]

His second goal was clocked at 95.3 mph.

 

[LevelingSolo]

Remember that thread asking if he would score 20 this year?

How many times has Ovie made them eat shit now?

Some people just don't learn.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Here's 52 and 51!

 

[BallardEra]

I wonder if he was playing through a minor injury earlier in the season. He even missed 3 games a week or so before the ASG.

 

[WarriorofTime]

Matched then surpassed Rod Brind'Amour and Steve Yzerman for most points in an aged 38 season. Sole possession of 19th in NHL history in that category. Passed Jean Beliveau, Maurice Richard and Don Marshall for most goals in an aged 38 season. Moved into six-way tie for 15th all time in that category.

Wasn’t he supposed to score 50?

Wasn’t he supposed to score 50?

The all time record at his age is 37, it’s a bit much to say he was “supposed” to score 50.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Maybe if he was 28 again lol.

 

[BallardEra]

Maybe if he was 28 again lol.

Or 36.

 

[eojsmada]

He's going to get 30+ this year, isn't he. Crazy.

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

GO OVI GO

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Or 36.

The fact that he did that at 36 is pretty incredible still. One of Ovi's finest seasons relative to expectations IMO.

 

[BallardEra]

Also has 23 points in his last 21 games.

 

[WarriorofTime]

Also has 23 points in his last 21 games.

and for all the "sad/pathetic/do the capitals only care about getting ovechkin the record/for how long can this mockery of sport and competition go on" concern that was being expressed in what we can assume was total sincere thoughts of Washington's well-being, the Capitals are back into a playoff position with 15 games to go in a season nobody expected them to compete for a spot, including their longtime top 2 Centers poofing away and selling at the deadline...

Ovechkin's 2nd PPG today became his career GWG #128.
7 more to catch Jagr at #1 all-time.

I think that they just have an unusual appetite

"The Tank"
51 to go

 

[IafrateOvie34]

He might have it now if not for the bad luck early in the season. More Camel rides!

In all fairness, nothing about his game made it seem like he was going to.
