Ovechkin's First 4 Goal Game (12/29/2007)

December 29, 2007 - While his most memorable 4-goal game came on January 31st, his first actually happened just over a month earlier in the Capitals' final game of 2007. Despite an injured leg which almost made him miss the game against the conference-leading Ottawa Senators, Alex Ovechkin put on a show notching his first career 4-goal and 5-point effort. The 4th goal in his milestone night was also his 30th of the year, marking the first of two times in his career he has hit 30 goals before the New Year. Hopefully I can get a slightly better quality copy of this with the CSN call, granted having the legendary Bob Cole on Hockey Night in Canada isn't too bad either.

Man, I love the hat trick goal! There was so much scoring that even an old fashion clapper can get through.

[@chriscostello117]

Years later he is the GOAT of the NHL. Not even a debate.

That resolution... I can't believe that's what 2007 looks like now.

[@everyovechkingoal5208]

2007 looked better than this to be fair. Copy of this game I got was only 336p when a decent standard-def copy would be 480p.

Овечки, где кубок?

[@user-qr5fn8mv9l]

Хаха!

[@MySundin13]

Matthews did it in his FIRST EVER NHL GAME. Matthews will end up scoring more goals than Ovie. He's better than Ovechkin EVER was

[@mgcgrozit]

Nobody cares.

[@enchanted2k797]

Your delusional if you think matthews is better then ovi 😭

[@enchanted2k797]

Some little kid leafs fan right here

[@Jay_Walker_96]

look at the team he's playing with here Backstrom and a couple washed players like Nylander and maybe Federov idk if this is the year he played with the caps where as matthews needs an entire team of stars to put up numbers that aren't even as good as these seasons that ovi was having back then.

[@Jay_Walker_96]

@@enchanted2k797 I actually hate these typical delusional Leafs fans they need to seek serious medical help
