Alex Ovechkin has killed it ever since he stepped onto the ice as a member of the Washington Capitals and with the recent tear he’s been on, there’s conversation on how he can become the NHL’s top all-time scorer.
Entering Saturday’s contest against the Philadelphia Flyers, Ovechkin has a chance to reach 700 goals. There are two chances to do it in front of the home fans before the team hits the road.
Just the other night he notched a natural hat trick in Tuesday’s win over the Los Angeles Kings in the span of 4:24 in the third period to tie, take the lead, and put the game away.
