I think Wilson just wanted an excuse to leave early and check on Ovie.

Fingers crossed he's alright.  Alexander The Gr8 has been on a tear and fun to watch, which is fantastic for fans who love hockey.

Ovechkin is the first player in NHL history with 100 career multi-goal road games. With two goals tonight, Ovechkin has recorded his fourth multi-goal game of the season and the 177th of his career. Only Wayne Gretzky (189) has more multi-goal games in NHL history.

Q.    Was it McBain that took out Ovi with the attempted deliberate knee on knee and was it him that consequentially had the scrap with Willy?

SHAME on the refs this game!    :bad:

this summer, this is their first season in Salt Lake City


Technically, Utah is a brand new NHL Franchise and they simply bought the assets from the Coyotes....but as far as history or records or whatever...this is a NEW team, so there is no affiliation with the Coyotes....(other than they bought all their players n shit)

So, technically it’s the same exact team with a different logo..

They're drawing like 11K a game.  They won't be there very long if that keeps up.

NHL.com saying Ovie is "week to week".   Would rather have lost the game.

Ugh.  I feel as if I have to take some responsibility here.


A couple of weeks ago I commented, just when Ovie started scoring, that I thought he needed one more of his hot streaks to make passing Gretzky basically a done deal.  Lo and behold, he's now scored 13 goals in the last 11 games, leaving him needing 27 more to break the record.  I also said that under those circumstances, then the only thing that could stop him was serious injury.


And now, here we are.  It isn't just the lost time; when Ovie returns he will be out of shape, and all the momentum he has will be gone.  It wouldn't be at all surprising if the last half of this season for him (if he returns that soon) will be a rerun of the first half of the 2023/24 season, leaving him maybe 20 or so short of Gretzky.  Eminently doable next year, but no lead pipe cinch - one more injury could derail him.   


Ovie has been exceedingly fortunate with injury throughout his career.  But Father Time IS undefeated.
