Ovi The Gr8 Scores Career Goal Number 600
What a legend who has not slowed down, not even for a second. He now has 42 goals on the year, and an even 600 in his career, and the young age of 32 years old. Only 32! He has scored at least 30 goals in every one of his 13 NHL seasons, and yes, that includes the lock-out shortened 2012-13 when he had 32 goals in 48 games.
Ovi is a one of a kind goal scorer who we’ve been so lucky to watch play in Washington his entire career. He’s also a wonderful person off the ice, which only makes him that much better. And now he has become just the 20th player in NHL history to score 600 goals, and only the 4th to do it in under 1000 games. Legend.
Will this be the year the Caps (the team) make a post-season run? Who knows. But Ovechkin (the player) has done everything he possibly can to give the Caps the best chance to win, night in and night out, for the last 13 seasons. Now the #GretzkyWatch is officially on.
