  1. Find yourself a friend that celebrates with you like Dylan Strome celebrated for Ovi. What a teammate.

  2. Bummer warning to all fans of Pat that aren't hockey fans really, Ovi has pretty much publicity declared that after his contract is up next season, he's going back to Russia to finish his career in the KHL. Wanna go down a rabbit hole? Look up how many assists Gretzky has

  3. Its easy because we ALL, Ovi included, thought what he just did was impossible to be done in todays hockey a few years ago still.

    Wayne has always been open about hoping to be alive to see someone break his record so he could shake their hand. Hes always wanted someone to break it. Just nobody thought it could be done.

  4. There's no debate for who's the goat and even the Mount Rushmore is pretty much the same for all true fans
    #1 Wayne Gretzky
    #2 Gordie Howe
    #3 Mario Lemieux
    #4 Bobby Orr

    Honorable mention for my Mount Rushmore for me as a Habs fan are Jean Béliveau, Maurice Richard and Patrick Roy.

  6. Грецки приежай в Россию. у нас в России до сих пор семья на первом месте у нас только женщины т мужчины.здесь остальной евро грязи нет

  7. There's absolutely no GOAT debate in hockey. Gretzky has more career assists than any player has career points (goals plus assists).

  8. Ovi is not in the GOAT debate. Anybody who knows hockey at all knows that. These dopes don’t know anything.

  9. Number one , Ovechkin was drafted the year before Crosby , he just remained in Russia for that year .. they did both join the League at the same time .. fact check that if you want .. at the beginning of this year I did not think there was a chance Alex would catch Wayne this year .. over 40 goals at this point of his career is phenomenal .. Go back and look to see how many goals Gretzky got in his final games .. this guy is a stud you guys did a great job with it too , except for the drafting information

  10. Just in case you do want to check your facts , Alexander Ovechkin was drafted number one in 2004 , Sidney Crosby was drafted number one in 2005

  11. It is so wild. I dreamt of him finally winning a cup and the celebration exactly as I saw it in my mind years before it happened. The 895 goal as well. Picture perfect. Nailed home both. I don’t know how long he will play, but he will stand alone as the only guy so far to score 900 goals. Who knows. Some dude we haven’t heard of yet may tear it up in the future and surpass 895 or 933 or whatever, but I don’t think it’ll be in my lifetime. I saw all of Gretzky’s career. All of Ovechkin so far and only Matthews has a shot at 900 of players in league today, but he will probably end up at around 750.

  12. Ovechkin does the impossible? That’s a stretch! He broke Gretzky‘s record for goals in a regular season. This doesn’t include playoffs, Gretzky still has 122 more goals total. That’s important because part of being a great player is helping your team be successful in the postseason.
    Wayne Gretzky has 2857 points (goals and assists combined ) in his career. Ovechkin has 1620 points (goals and assists combined ) in his career Gretzky has 1963 assists, so if Gretzky never scored one goal in the NHL, he would still have more points than Ovechkin. do the impossible would be breaking Gretzky‘s record for most points! That is the most impressive statistic that Gretzky holds! If he never scored one goal in the NHL, he would still have more points than anybody in history.

  13. you gotta show the goal he scored on his back with one hand on his stick a few decades ago- knew he was great- but, still thought Gretzky's record was safe!!!

  14. 8 straight Harts (MVPs) (and 9 in 10 years) and 10 Art Ross (points leads)….. all-time leader in points just with assists alone, and the all-time points leader without his secondary assists included (of which he also is the leader)…. Fastest to 1000 points (423 games) and also 2nd fastest 1000 points (433 games), making it 2000 points in 857 games by age 28 all within one decade. Yup, no contest. It’s 99.
