I've had hubby's 3 nephews here helping move some stuff out of the house and take what they wanted, so who got #6?

 

[Iraolaball]

What a weekend! I'm celebrating with a Black N Tan!!!

15 goals in 2 games coming out of the break. That’s just crazy. These guys haven’t missed a beat. OV with 3 today was awesome. That last one was hilarious. Broken stick on a point slapper, right to OV for the long distance goal. Just awesome.

Spencer Carbery should be a shoe in for the Jack Adams.

Another in the long line of guys who leave Toronto and find success elsewhere.

What a tip by McMichael on the go ahead goal vs. Seattle.

 

[Iraolaball]

Ovi with the empty netter, backhanded from center ice without even looking at the net! Amazing!

9 to go!

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE CAPITALS ON CLINCHING PLAYOFFS!

Last year they clinched on the last day, squeaking in.
This year they clinched first.

I hope they can play great in the second season!

Do playoff goals count towards the record?

Gretzky’s 894 that Ovechkin is chasing is regular season goals.

 

[Chris]

Gretzky’s total career goals is 1016. Ovi is at 960.

Gretzky’s total career goals is 1016. Ovi is at 960.

I was wondering about this recently, thanks - reports are that he will likely retire after next year.

I guess he doesn't care about the career goals record as much as playing in Russia with something left in the tank. He is approaching that age where you can see, at some point the gas is going to run out. I think he wants to play in Russia again before that happens.

He has been asked a few times and he didn't leave too much of a question on this being his last contract (1 more year).

 

[SkinsOrlando]

A + classy move by Ovi and team for recognizing Fleury at the end of the game. Hated his ass on the Pens but that's just rivalry, he's had a helluva run in net.

How likely do you Capital's die-hards think it is that Ovi breaks the regular season record THIS year? Feels like it could go either way to me...

I think he ties, and we go into next season thirsting for the first game of the season and he drills one in from "his office."
