Ovechkin just made NHL history

It is now Gordie Howe, Brendan Shanahan and Alexander Ovechkin. That's it. Last night, as the Washington Capitals came into the Saddledome to face the Calgary Flames, Alexander Ovechkin made history becoming only the 3rd player in NHL history to have scored 20 or more goals in 19 consecutive seasons. Despite getting off to an extremely cold start to this NHL season, Ovechkin has picked it up and scored not one but 2 powerplay goals on route to a big victory in Calgary as the Caps are now officially in a Wild Card playoff spot led by their captain. The game was a good one, so enjoy as I cover that and much more in todays NHL hockey video!

Imagine Ovie had a '05 season and an extra 32 games from covid?

[@PROGROCK-tr9hw]

He would have had at least 40 each of those seasons,most likely 50 in one.That would have gave him the most 30,40,and 50 goal seasons,not to mention the 48 and 49 goal seasons he had.

[@SchulzEricT]

@@PROGROCK-tr9hwMathematically: he's tied for the lead in 50-goal seasons; he *would* have 2 more if not for the '12-'13 lockout (he actually scored 51 goals, 45 assists, 96 points in 79 games, just split between the NHL - 48 games - and KHL - 31 games. He had more goals-per-game in the NHL than KHL too, so at that rate he'd've actually scored more than 51). THEN he had 48 in 68 in ''19-'20 before the Covid lockout; he'd missed 1 game, so he needed 2 in 13 games to reach 50. 100% he does it. Giving him 40 as an 18 year old rookie (conservative), plus the 19 he scored in '12-'13 (again, conservative because his NHL goal-scoring pace was higher), then pro-rating his goals during the 2 Covid lockouts - he scored 48, was on pace for 57; he scored 24, was on pace for 38 - that's 40 + 19 + 9 + 14 = 82 He has 848 + 82 = 930. That's not even including all the times the NHL has stolen perfectly legal goals; there've been A TON, none (for any player, ever) more egregious than his GWG vs NSH earlier this season. Which, by the way, would've marked the GWG in 3 straight games.

[@SchulzEricT]

@@PROGROCK-tr9hwAs far as almost-got-the-milestone... there's really only 2 I'd identify (ignoring the already addressed lockouts: mainly that 48 in '19-20) In '11-'12 he got 38 in 78; *very* close to 40 In '17-'18 he got 49 in 81; so damn close! If I could just give him one more goal (to this point) in his career, yeah, that season plus all the other hypotheticals give him THREE more 50-goal seasons than anybody else. But that's more disingenuous to me than the lockouts, you know? He didn't get a 50 goal season because he didn't score 50; he "only" got 49. Oh well. The 4 lockout seasons, man, that's what kills me.

Ovi is just messin' with us. He'll train harder this off season and come back 20 lbs lighter and a new man for the 24-25 season.

[@chrismac5560]

I've been saying all season that I feel like Ovie will have a bounce back season next year. I wasn't giving up hope until I seen him struggle two years in a row. The way he's been playing in the second half of the season has reassured me in saying "I feel he can pop 40 next season". Assuming he can pop 4 more in the last 15 this year and finish the season with 25 that would leave him 48 short of breaking. With my prediction of the bounce back season putting him in single digits of breaking the record I would guess he signs a very team friendly one year contract for 25-26 and tells the GM "there, go build me a cup winning team"

[@sylvestorstyllstoned488]

I think Ovi pops off and scores 45-50 next year. Then the next season will just be him piling on to the record , I see him getting more then 900 for sure.

[@chrismac5560]

@@sylvestorstyllstoned488 I don't think he'll hit 50, but I can see another one of those "damn, so close to fifty" 48-49 goal seasons which is why I'm really hoping he ends this year with at least 25 (that'd put him 48 short of breaking). Even if he breaks the record next year which I put at very slim chances, I see him signing a very team friendly one year contract for 25-26 to say "bring me a championship team with the extra cap space", and even possibly a second time for 26-27; I just think he had way too much fun in the summer of 2018 to not try to go for it again, I can't see next year being his last regardless of if he's got the record or not so yes that means I see him finishing in the 900's

Well, you can look at it this way, Ovi is 38 and, same age Gretzky was when he retired and he hasn’t passed him yet.

Gretzky’s WHA goals don’t count either. It’s sort of like Ichiro racking up over 1000 hits in Japan that don’t count towards his MLB total. Add them all together and he had more hits than Pete Rose.

I mean, our team has been in flux all season (thanks, Lav, you dumb asshole). Next season we'll enter the season with a much clearer picture: Strome, CMM, and Lappy at center, whoever the depth chart falls, is much better than the numbers might make it seem. We had Backstrom - after a career-ending injury - in the top-6 for 8 games, Kuz was eating minutes that he didn't deserve... Lappy spent much of the season in the AHL; he's been on fire since his most recent call-up. We finally have cap space (a TON of it) so we definitely can if we want to - we could definitely use 1 more legit top-6 F, although a winger makes more sense than center - but we need to address the defense first and foremost.

[@SchulzEricT]

1 - Personal issues: his dad died 2 - Team in flux: Backstrom suffered a career-ending injury but wanted to try a comeback; Kuz lost his motivation; new coach and our old coach set us up to fail by not playing any up-and-coming young talent last season We entered the season SUPER deep but that poses problems because you need to figure out who to play and where, and you need to figure out how to best construct your lineup to be the best team you can be now but also into the future, you want to develop and get better as the season goes along... Lav did NOTHING last season to help with any of that, constructing our lineup last season like he was trying to tank but also not develop anybody. 3 - The NHL stole 4-3--7 from Ovie this season; he actually SHOULD have 30-35--65 in 67 games but some of the shadiest calls have been made that have stolen goals, assists, points from Ovie and points from the Caps. (The goals against don't affect Ovie's totals but hurt the Caps' chances to miss the playoffs; the goals being washed out are just killer. No washed goal in NHL history was more egregiously bad than Ovie's GWG vs NSH, which was not only the weakest goalie INT I've seen in a LONG time - maybe ever? - but it didn't even happen until AFTER the goal... AND it wasn't even challenged, the NHL just illegally called down to tell the officials to wash it out.)

Just to tell you cause I’m a caps fan. Let me explain Ovi’s season. This season alone, he’s had his 2 longest goal droughts of his entire career ( 12 and 13 games ). Both came during the first half of the season. In the first 42 games, he registered 8 goals (not very ovi) On the bye week before all star weekend, ovi rode a camel and it gave him magical powers (I’m assuming). Since the all star break, ovi has 13 goals in 21 games (around the .6 gpg average of his career). Needless to say, ovi is back. Hopefully he can stay in shape to start next season, I could see him MAYBE getting 50 still. His one timer last night was 95.3 mph. He hasn’t lost his shot.

As fans, we'll be cursing if we don't see the record when he gets so close. As a fan, seeing Glenn Anderson finish his career with 498 goals really sucks. Why can't a team give him a few more games to reach 500?

The third goal yesterday in the game that OVI scored actually hit a flames stick. Not to take the credit away from ovi

He broke another flames stick earlier in the game on a snap shot face off play that was blocked 😂

Shanahan being ahead of generational superstars like Gretzky and Lemieux is just wild. I know its all about longevity but still looks weird

And hes with 848 goals atm , considering how much time he lost during 04-05 and 12-13 lockouts + covid season .... he would be around 950 goals alrdy .

[@SchulzEricT]

My math has him at 930 exactly. I'm assuming "only" 40 as an 18-year-old rookie; that may be conservative, but 50 seems generous. And I merely gave him 19 extra goals for the '12-'13 lockout, because that's what he scored in the KHL; since he scored at a higher goals-per-game pace in the NHL that season, I could see giving him a few more...

Ovechin could do history by not to be Puutins best friend😮

[@larrygrassinger2819]

He worships communism far too much.

Он уже в истории , в отличии от тебя

[@celticstephenhill]

Only Ovi can draw a "Holding the stick" penalty when the other guy has both hands securely on his own stick. 🙄

[@b33rleague5]

Ovi will get 899. Mark my words. 8-99.

[@SpaceWolfPainter]

Ovi is the GOAT
