(Caps Outsider)
Caps superstar Alex Ovechkin scored his 718th career goal on Tuesday, one better than the great Phil Esposito and good for sole possession of sixth place on the all-time list.
The goal came on the power play from the top left circle, just like many of his goals. It put the Caps ahead of the Islanders, 2-0.
Ovi now trails Marcel Dionne (731), Brett Hull (741), Jaromir Jagr (766), Gordie Howe (801), and Wayne Gretzky (894) on the all-time goals list.
