You’d think after the number of times Ovi has scored from the EXACT same spot as most of his one timers that teams would stick a D man on him. It’s like opposing teams just let him shoot freely. It’s not a secret where he’s gonna shoot lol.
Ovi is not better than Gretzky I say as a disclaimer but where they are at skill wise at 36 years old is night and day. Ovechkin is still clearly in his prime while Gretzky was a pure, slow moving playmaker at this point with little gas left in the tank. Ovi's conditioning is why he'll hit 900 goals.
Ovechkin is actually turning into one of the very best ever. Because he adapted to age. Found a way to still be productive despite not roaring across the blue line to often anymore. He has far more Even strength pts than anyone else this year. For the longest time most said Crosby is better. These days Ovechkin is better and may go down in history only behind Mario and Wayne as best ever. Needs abother cup for that to happen though.
I've seen so many goals from Ovechkin from around that place on the ice. Yet he was wide open there, with no one within 10 feet of him when he scored the goal. How do teams still not cover him when he likes to settle down on the left wing in the faceoff circle?

Ovie's controller disconnected when he was entering the zone.
“Ovi is nothing without his one-timer” that’s like saying Curry is nothing without his three pointers.
Literally the moment you see Ovi drifting slowly towards the net unmarked, you knew it was coming
Classic

Backy first game back already a impact such a legend and no stopping Ovis shot lol greatest goal scorer of all time
True legend. Respect only.
Beautiful
He can play 25 minutes when he just glides around or stands still. Great!
Ovi leads the league in total points…at age 36.
OK, so there's the numbers for all of the crybabys who preach about PPGs and how Ovechkin only scores on the man advantage.
751 Overall Goals. 274 PPGs.
I'm so happy cause I'm going to the game Sunday. Hopefully I can film when ovi beats the record
Ovi is TOP

Everybody knows what he will do. But nobody can to do something for stop him.

So casual. Not a single stride from the red line until he rips the one T
Ovi is a living legend.
They count the goal as soon as it touches his stick from that spot.
Овечкин внёс культуру игры и шоу для НХЛ , он один может продавать билеты, не гнобите его он вам вывел НХЛ на ступеньку выше
Do you think Fleury checks under his bed for Ovechkin every night?
He really is playing catch up from the lost games, I hope he does it.
Perfection

As a penguins fan I'm at a crossroads I hate the Caps for sure
But I also want Ovi to top Wayne cause Mario was better overall
It's almost like nobody even bothers trying to cover him anymore.
I hope he doesn't break Gretzky's record purely because a HUGE chunk of his goals are like this. One timer from the circle. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Burning Man
Ovi is the greatest goal scorer to EVER play. The NHL and scoring goals in todays game is SO much harder than it was when Gretzky played.
