There's a guy in a Blackhawks jersey behind the goal on Ovi's record tying goal, he gets up and cheers with the rest of the Caps fans. Love to see it haha

“Hey, remember when Ovechkin had a multi-goal game against the Blackhawks to set an extremely impressive milestone?”

“Yeah, which time?”

[vvictory]

WOW send chills through my body. WOW WOW !!! Congratulations Ovi and the Washington Capitals franchise and Fans.. nice respect shown by the NHL teams and players 👍👍❤️💯

Love the Hawks fan that gets up and clap at 8:40. Everybody gotta respect what a player Ovi is.

[Vladimrs]

Just enjoy the sheer greatness of Ovechkin. There may never be another player like him. What's especially valuable is how Ovechkin has reached this milestone. He's not struggling to score goals every now and then, he's dominating the league.

"The Great One who's about to be surpassed by the GR8 One." Bravo Ovi. 🙇‍♂️

[Airmondo]

Best goalscorer of all time. Same amount of games and against significantly better goaltending.

[DookieWoogers]

Best to ever shoot a puck. Hands down. Wayne played when the average goals a game in the league was 3.65. Ovi has played when the HIGHEST average ever while he’s been in the league was 2.75. Almost a full less goal a game and he ties Wayne in less games. Ovi is the by far better shot taker, and goal scorer. And it’s not even close.

At least for today, The Great 8 Express pulls into equal footing with The Great One.

He can almost taste it! Check back on Sunday (and beyond) if history will be made. To that, I say yes. Let's go, Ovechkin! Don't stop!

Congratulations Alexander 🎉🎉
In Canada's eyes, you are now the new "Great One" . I'm sure you are making your country and family feel very proud. Well done!!

[Ultrakondi]

chicago casually scores an own goal, just to prevent Ovi from scoring😂

[kevinwong]

Congratulations to Ovechkin for tying Gretzky goals record in regular season. 6 games to break the record. Let’s do it.

Sanya - you are a beauty! I was sad when you were out for 16!! matches this season. And I saw how difficult it was for you to get back into the game... But you did it! And I was rooting for you! Waiting for 895 and more.👍👍👍

1 GOAL AWAY FROM HISTORY! 🦅🦅🦅

Also clearly Spencer Knight did not wanna be in the history books as the goalie that makes Ovi break the record with those last minute saves lol 😅

[davelaneve]

I'm a huge Hawks fan, but Ovi has been my favorite player since his first all star appearance in 07. I was not concerned about the Hawks winning this game, was hoping for Ovi to get a hat trick and surpass Gretzky! Ovi said that he won't retire until after goal 1000! He will get there within the next few seasons!

[elawson]

Congrats, Riley Leonard, on the first goal

[-TOLASIK-]

Овечкин легенда 894 гола за один клуб величайший 👽

[vitek]

А ещё крайне радует сезонная результативность - 56 шайб за сезон! И это в почти 40 лет! Монстр хоккея!

Ovi wow amazing! Now go get the goals record!
