Alex Ovechkin both tied and passed Mario Lemieux for all-time goals on Saturday, scoring his 7th goal in his last three games to give himself 691 in his career.
While he’ll be sitting a one-game suspension for declining to play in the All Star game, he’s got a shot at yet another Rocket Richard trophy this year though David Pastrnak and Austin Matthews are ahead of Ovi this season.
While it’s great seeing Ovi pass Lemieux, the longtime Penguins player is one of the few on the list that set his goals mark in fewer games than Ovechkin.
