Alex Ovechkin will break Wayne Gretzky's goals record
Alex Ovechkin will surpass Wayne Gretzky's unbreakable goals record this season. He's 42 away and he's got that dawg in him to not allow last year to happen again.
No I'm not talking about the second half surge that was vital. The camel ride while skipping the All Star Break was vital. Now he has a chance to do something special this season with a lot more eyes on him now than ever before.
853 career goals. 697career assists. 1,550 points. If there was ever a guy who could do the impossible and break the record no one else even comes close. And this is out of respect to the great game of hockey.
Ovi whether you adore him or not, changed everything here in DC. Fans young and old alike flock to the barn on 7th and F Street just for a chance at witnessing history.
Last season he had 31 goals and 34 assists for 65 points which was a low given his slow start to the season. With three home games to start the season, fans are anxious to see if Ovi can get off to a much hotter start to make the tickets later in the season even hotter.
