It sure was nice to see Ovechkin score his 800th NHL Goal and surpass Gordie Howe for second all time in goals in NHL History! One more hill left to climb, he can do it!
Some people think it’s easy to do what he does on the PP. But there’s a reason nobody else can do it at that level. Ovie’s got a very special ability to feel the game and know which shot is best before even shooting. When to shoot short or far, know when to just powder it to beat the goalie there or focus on making a perfect shot, even when to fake the shot, hold it and out wait the goalie. He’s not just standing there launching bombs randomly, he’s very calculated in how he attacks the goalie.
And this without Nick Backstrom and Kuznetsov. So unfortunate that backstrom has been out with injuries and not on the ice with Ovi as he gets closer. How fitting would it be if the record tier and breaker come of of assists from backstrom with the record breaker being his signature slap shot.
For all the pseudo hockey fans commenting on the number of empty net goals Ovi has, you have to understand that you have to put yourself and your team in the position of having the opponent pull their goalie in the first place.
He has 6 goals in 6 games and only 1 is empty netter which he still had to work for beat defender in skating something which he probably couldn't do 2 months ago.
Why tf wouldn’t you just have a defender shadow him and go 3 vs 4 on the penalty kill? Everyone knows that one timer is coming and the caps soul purpose for the next couple year is to have him break the record.
6:50 is a great exemple why they can't, he only needs a fraction of a second to score. If you cover him someone else will still be free and has a better chance to score in the slot like Oshie on a one timer... the result stay the same that's why the Caps had one of the best PP in the league for years they are dangerous from anywhere! Kuzy, Backstrom & Carlson also are meisters to find open space for Ovie to release the trigger.
As a Caps fan it’s been such a privilege to watch him play and compete. He loves the game. I appreciate the work you do to put this in here
Thank you! It's always a job uploading OV every year :p

As an avs fan I had to applaud the one he got at Ball arena. That thing was a missile and easily the loudest slap of the night.
That was a missle dude holy moly
Ovi will have another 50 goal season
Hopefully
@@hatrickane I hope
i hope ovi gets to 1,000 goals before retiring
@@ethanparker7900 agreed
Love to see it
Ovi will probably break Gretzky’s record sometime in the 2024-25 season
That's where I'm thinking he'll do it..maybe the year after
4:09 omg Kane literally flew head first into boards 🤣
Thanks!
You're welcome
Ovi gonna break the record for sure
5:21 goat status

OVI
OV!!!
What would it take for the Blues to get a player like Ovechkin?
For all the pseudo hockey fans commenting on the number of empty net goals Ovi has, you have to understand that you have to put yourself and your team in the position of having the opponent pull their goalie in the first place.
the only thing this guy can do now is score empty netters, im still not convinced he’ll pass gretzky lol
He has 6 goals in 6 games and only 1 is empty netter which he still had to work for beat defender in skating something which he probably couldn't do 2 months ago.
a lot of empty nets🤣
Ik I was editing and was like how many in a row can he get 😂
still the greatest
It was the one timers that stood out to me more than anything, absolute rockets
Coming from a loser with 0 goals EVER.

Because there are other threats out there..maybe not as dangerous as a few years ago but still

@@samac_schnitzers3454 for sure…I just think I’d rather take my chances w the guys who don’t have 800 plus career goals. 😆
@@Joe_Ma99 Facts xD
Because when he feels like it, he will deke your entire team and make your goalie go one on one lol.
It is very sad that one of the best hockey players supports Putin
Many people support Putin who is a real man and not some girly man from Poland.
Его бросок это,что то удивительное,как он сам говорил,если попаду во вратаря,то ему повезло😊
