Ovechkin scores goal 891 and is now just 4 goals back on Gretzky's record
Even Bruins fans celebrated this goal!
Ladies and gentlemen, we are witnessing history.
Alex Ovechkin continued his goal scoring tear in Boston this evening with career goal 891 against the Boston Bruins. His wife was in attendance to see the tally that now puts him just 4 goals back of Wayne Gretzky's all-time NHL goal scoring record.
I mean it sincerely when I say that I never thought anyone would ever..... EEEEEEEEEVER come close to Gretzky's record, but Ovechkin is just four goals away.
Truly remarkable.
I say go for it tonight with a 5 goal game just so we can all remember exactly how/when the record was broken. Again... truly remarkable.
