Ovechkin crashed a record that was 46 years old! Ovi executed Edmonton, rewrote the story and put America on his ears

We collect another pack of achievements and study the reaction. Alexander Ovechkin seems to have found somewhere an elixir of youth, otherwise it is impossible to explain what he does this season. Ovi shut his mouths to everyone who doubted him before the regular season. The question of whether he will beat Wayne Gretzky’s record for a long time, but when he does it-the intrigue of the rest of the NHL regular championship. All rest and training pause do their job: tonight the lag behind Gretska was reduced by already Three goals! By the way, this is the second hat-trick in the season for Alexander the Great and the first in his career in the goal of Edmonton. Now it remains to throw only 13 goals to set a new sniper record of all time. The achievement of the mark of 895 washers-the number, which was once previously considered unattainable-is now inevitable. Ovechkin is 39 years old, but, having gained the best sniper pace in his career, he continues to prove that age is just a figure. When it comes to what Ovechkin makes with such a stable sniper, the answer is simple: the matter is in his throw. Ovechkin never loses his strength of a throw and goose flair: whether it is a throw in touching “from the office” or a click from a heel. Ovechkin puts all his strength into every throw. To this day, the defenders and goalkeepers of the rivals of Washington cannot fully understand how to stop him, ”writes the author of The Hockey News Sammy Silber.VideoThe authors of Sports Illustrated noted another achievement of Alexander Ovechkin, related to the game against Edmonton. In addition to the fact that the next hat-trick became the 32nd in the career of Ovi, it became the 19th after Alexander reached the age of 30. And this is a league record. According to this indicator, Ovechkin today bypass Fila Esposito, who had 18 such games aged 30+. The Canadian issued his last hat-trick in October 1979, that is, the record was almost 46 years old. Alexander’s partners constantly celebrate his focus on the gate, this match is no exception. “It doesn’t matter if he will abandon one or two-I have never seen so hungry to the head of the guy. Some players score and think: “Okay, I have a good evening today.” But Ovi returns to the bench and literally immediately asks if he can come out again. It is amazing to observe how he does what he knows, ”said Tom Wilson’s partner after playing with Edmonton, Alexander in a joking form answered the journalists' question about the opportunity to bypass Wayne Gretzka this season:“ I'm going From the game to the game. Today I had a lot of opportunities to score, but I am content with three goals, ”Ovechkin said with a smile on his face after the match.VideoWashington head coach Spencer Karberi expressed the same thought regarding Alexander Mikhailovich’s moments: “As for Ovechkin’s heads, he could score six today, and I say this absolutely seriously.” By this, Ovi established another unique achievement. He is not limited to one pursuit of Gretzky. Alexander became the first hockey player in the history of the NHL to abandon at least 200 goals in three decades. In the 2000s, Alexander abandoned 245 goals, in the 10th-447 and from January 2020 he designed 200 goals on the goal of rivals. And the captain of Washington is located in just four assigned points from another anniversary mark of 1600 points. It seems that Alexander’s hat-trick caused a violent reaction in the media space. On this subject, Washington even posted an interesting post in his social networks with the signature: “People are discussing.”Everyone admires Ovechkin in the American media. Even the press service of Oylers did not pass by such an event. On the main page of the Edmonton website, a photograph of Alexander Ovechkin is flaunting from the match and the headline: “Capital Punishment”, made on the game of words that can be translated as “mortal execution”.“The Great Eight and“ Washington Capitals ”, ladies and gentlemen. Alex Ovechkin scored his 880th, 881st and 882nd goals in his career and designed a hat-trick, participating in the defeat of Edmonton Oilers with a score of 7: 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3. the Russian reduced the lag and is in 13 goals from breaking the record Wayne Gretzki. Today was the day of Alexander Ovechkin and Washington Capitals, difficult for the blue-orange. If he had not missed five weeks because of a fracture of the fibula in the first part of the season, when he was in the league with 15 goals in 18 games, then there would be every reason to believe that we could see how Ovechkin would have been playing today playing today Against the team, for which Gretzky abandoned 583 goals out of 894 in his entire career, ”the post -match says report “Edmonton”. But according to forecasts, Alexander Ovechkin will beat the record not against Edmonton. Now a new estimated date has appeared. Now the heads of goals for the match 0.71 and according to the NHL calculations, if Ovi continues to score at this pace, then the record will fall in early April, namely the 4th day in the home match of the “capital” against Chicago Blackhox. The second date is based on the same indicator, but in a career, they also call a guest match against Columbus on April 12-the last match of the regular championship-2024/2025.
