Every goal that Washington Capitals superstar Alex Ovechkin scores is hugely meaningful on the ice — but it’s going to mean even more off of it as he continues to chase Wayne Gretzky’s all-time record.

While Gretzky’s status is secure, his scoring record is not. At the end of February, Washington Capitals star Alex Ovechkin trailed Gretzky by just 11 goals, putting him in line to potentially pass Gretzky by the end of the 2024-25 season.

Alex Ovechkin is nearing Wayne Gretzky's all-time record of 894 goals. With 885 goals already scored and 20 games left in the season, Ovechkin needs just 10 more to surpass the record. Capitals fans are eagerly anticipating each goal.
