Alex Ovechkin scores 900th goal
Digest more
The 900-goal mark is the latest in a series of milestones for Ovechkin, who broke Wayne Gretzky’s all-time goal record in April with No. 895. He now has three goals and five assists in 13 games this season and sits 10 points behind Joe Sakic for 10th on the NHL’s all-time point-scoring list.
Ovechkin scored his record-breaking 895th goal against the Islanders on April 6, but Ilya Sorokin — the goalie who allowed it — wouldn't yield to another milestone on this night. He made 13 saves in the first period as Washington made an early push, and only Wilson managed to beat him.
