Alex Ovechkin is still the greatest goal-scorer of this generation but it could be a passing of the torch when the Toronto Maple Leafs face the Washington Capitals tonight.
As everyone knows, Toronto Maple Leafs superstar Auston Matthews is having the best individual season in team history. I know he’s not going to reach Doug Gilmour’s point totals of 30 years ago, but his goal-scoring ability makes it the team’s best individual season.
When Wayne Gretzky finished his career with 894 total goals, nobody thought that goal-total would be broken. It was very similar Hank Aaron’s 755 career home-runs record.
