In the 1,487th game of his career, Alexander scored his 895th regular season goal. Interestingly enough, it took the same amount of game for Wayne Gretzky to score his 894th goal. While Gretzky still leads in Assists and Points, his longtime goal record has finally been toppled.
The Washington Capitals drafted Alexander Ovechkin first overall in the 2004 NHL Draft. Since then, Ovi has earned 13 All-Star nods, as well as a Stanley Cup he won back in 2018. He's an eight time All-Star first teamer, and a four-time second teamer. Overall, there's nothing to say about him that hasn't been said already.
In the Capitals' 1-4 loss to the Islanders, Ovechkin scored his record-breaking goal in the 2nd Period with 7:26 remaining. Although the team ended up losing, it was still a historic day for both Ovi and the franchise. The team is still first place in the Metropolitan Division, and they already clinched a playoff spot.
Overall, that includes everything you need to know about the new Alex Ovechkin items in NHL 25. We encourage players to log in, which is all you need to do to receive some great content. See you out there on the ice with your new Ovi themed items!
