| Ovechkin scored the 894th goal of his NHL career in the third period Friday against the Chicago Blackhawks to draw even with Gretzky. The 39-year-old racked up goals at a torrid pace this season before a broken leg in mid-November stalled his pursuit of Gretzky's record. The Russian superstar, who won a Stanley Cup with Washington in 2018, has long been a singular force in the sport and the face of hockey in the District. |
