Alex Ovechkin Ties All-Time Goals Record In Friday's Win
Washington Capitals winger Alex Ovechkin tied Wayne Gretzky for the most goals in NHL history against the Chicago Blackhawks in a 5-3 win on Friday. The Capitals captain finished the contest with two goals, opening the scoring less than four minutes into the game and adding another one -- a power-play goal -- in the third period, with Gretzky watching from the stands. Ovechkin now has 894 regular-season goals through 1,486 career games, including 41 markers in 60 outings this season. The Russian superstar, who boasts 68 points for the campaign, has relentlessly chased Gretzky's record this season and will get his next opportunity to break it on Sunday against the New York Islanders. Ovechkin will enter the matchup with a four-game goal streak.
