Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin is eight goals away from breaking Wayne Gretzky's NHL Goal record with odds increasing for it to happen versus the New York Islanders
The biggest storyline of the NHL season has by far been the GR8 Chase with Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin on the precipice of passing hockey legend Wayne Gretzky for the all-time goals record. There is nine games left in the Capitals season and Ovechkin is within five goals from breaking the record after scoring versus the Sabres this past Sunday.
The Russian winger has 37 goals on the season now, and betting odds for the record to be broken this season have dropped drastically to -170 and means if you haven't taken it already like we suggest, you may have missed your last opportunity to take the bet at a bargain but we have several other betting options that you still can take.
