Mickstix:
Ovi breaks the record for most GWG's as well.

Bro caught fucking fire! lol

alta:
OV was on fire before his leg injury, it takes time to recover from a leg injury

Mickstix:
Unreal he has 42 goals at age 39. He'd of been close to 50 by years end w/o the broken leg.  8-0

In fact, a credible case can be made that this is one of the greatest scoring seasons in the history of the sport.  He's broken the record for most goals at his age, with his season being interrupted in the middle and shortened by 16 games because he BROKE HIS LEG!  In a skating sport, where your legs provide the foundation for your shot. 


I'm glad to see that the Gretzky-tying goal was totally legitimate, in crunch time, to win the game.  No hokey stuff here, or with his last several goals, for that matter.  I hope we can say the same about the next one.  I wonder if, because of 4 games in 6 days and not getting 895 tonight, he might not be optimally motivated for the Sunday game at the Isles.  THEN the team has 3 days off before the next home game against the Canes, where the Caps and Ovie will be rested and there may be some ill feeling from the last game.
