He could still hit 900 this season. And is under contract one more year, but has said he won't sign another one. So he should get well over 900.
But Gretzky has 122 playoff goals vs 72 for Ovi. So Ovi will need to score another 50 to get most goals overall for a career.
Tom Wilson has been carrying Ovechkin all season and playing better than I've ever seen him. He does the stuff Ovechkin doesn't do any more--back checking, carrying the puck, going hard into the corners, checking--making it possible for Ovechkin to set up in front of the net or in the left circle and wait to shoot. I saw Ovechkin in person in Vegas last year and focused on him when he was on the ice. He's about the most boring hockey player you could watch--but then there's that shot. The game I was at I don't think he had a shot on goal.
Geez and how bitter you were when Gretzky overtook your beloved Red Wing?
Wild game in Dallas tonite. Stars were up 3-2, scored two with about 2:30 left. Nucks scored 3 in the last minute to tie it and then won in OT.
Reminded me of a Flames-Nords game way back where Flames scored 5 goals in the last 7 mins, including 3 in 30sec and then two SH goals 4sec apart in the last 15 sec.

Huge playoff boost, at least mentally, for the Avs if he steps foot on the ice.

3 days !!! until the best playoffs start !</p>
Big W for Montreal tonight.. Sucks for Columbus, had a good little rally going there.
My Devils might win 1 against Carolina, given their performance in the second half of the season.

If Vegas can get healthy they are going to be tough to beat. Unfortunately that's a big if.
Vegas got a really easy draw in MN, they could sweep and recuperate. The Kings could easily sweep Edmonton as well. I think the Avs and Stars are the teams to beat in the West though. Go Avs

Go Avs ! Beat those big haired, shit kicker boot wearing, country ass stars !</p>
Another overtime game, i think the 5th already.
I know the NBA gets all the love now but there is no way the NHL is not thebetter playoffs; they are just freaking fantastic !
Man, Sens finally make it back to the playoffs and our goalie can't even give them a fighting chance to win. His BEST performance so far was a 0.857 save percentage. Worst? 0.75. Oofdah.
Dude, Tom Wilson fucking charges onto the bench attacking Anderson, that was an interesting fight there.
Rantanen with hat tricks in two consecutive games. Panthers and rat boy need to step up and kick some leafs ass.
ten OT games and a series ending win a win in OT !
nhl playoffs are the best hands down, nba can suck it, let the media world suck their crotch for a lesser playoff if they want.
??? Fuck da Panthers!!! So pissed they won yesterdayQuote:

I donot really follow hockey but they tell me scoring goals is a big thing
so how many goals did he ^^ score this year in the quest to break The great ones record ?
The ones who should be scoring and are not are Matthews and marner.
Panthers fucking rolled them the other night, and beat them up!
I got the cats going to the final and beating Edmonton. Again.
Yeah, hard to imagine any team bouncing back from a beat down like the leafs just endured. I hope they do somehow.
Hate to say it but I’d like to see the Panthers put the Leafs to bed… Just have no faith in the Leafs standing a chance against Carolina.

Man, bob gave Matthews a break on that first goal. Shouldn't have let that one in. 2-0 leafs now. Guess I'll enjoy a Sunday game. [emoji846]
was at a local cigar bar had one tv on nba and one on nhl, now nba was a blow out but no comparison which one is better to watch, nhl is non stop, nba is like a new driver with a car and a standard transmission, fast and jerky with many stops and starts
Fingers still crossed for an all Canadian final.
Shut your whore mouth!Quote:
