Alex Ovechkin scores goal No. 892, moves to within 3 of breaking Wayne Gretzky's NHL record of 894

Only Gretzky, Ovechkin and Gordie Howe have scored at least 800 goals in NHL history

Sean Leahy  |  April 2, 2025  |  8:59 PM EDT


Alex Ovechkin scored career goal No. 892 for the Washington Capitals on Wednesday night against the Carolina Hurricanes, putting him three away from breaking Wayne Gretzky's all-time NHL record of 894.

The goal was a one-time scored at the end of a second period of a lopsided game against the Carolina Hurricanes, narrowing the deficit to 4-1. Jakob Chychrun and Dylan Strome both notched assists on the play.

Gretzky and NHL commissioner Gary Bettman will both be in attendance at Capitals games from here on out to ensure they are present for Ovechkin's record-breaking goal.

Ovechkin's goal was his 39th of the season, inching him closer to the 14th 40-goal season of his 20-year NHL career. He's currently tied for third in goals scored this season and will likely come up short in his bid for a 10th Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophy.

The Eastern Conference-leading Capitals have seven games to play in the regular season.  .  .  .

“No people will tamely surrender their Liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffused and Virtue is preserved. On the Contrary, when People are universally ignorant, and debauched in their Manners, they will sink under their own weight without the Aid of foreign Invaders. “

Samuel Adams, letter to James Warren, November 4, 1775

“Nothing is more certain than that a general profligacy and corruption of manners make a people ripe for destruction. A good form of government may hold the rotten materials together for some time, but beyond a certain pitch, even the best constitution will be ineffectual, and slavery must ensue.”

John Witherspoon, The Dominion of Providence Over the Passions of Men, 1776

   He'll be so far up Trumps butt he'll know what he had for breakfast before the press does.  And you know it'll work.

   Trump will endorse his swing to MAGA not realizing it's BS.

Don't forget Paxton was on Trump's short list for AG.  Cornyn's toast. (Thank God)

Elon was becoming a negative-value proposition for the Trump brand.

His merry little band of computer geeks could certainly continue their cost cutting rampage out of the spotlight.

I was wondering if Musk would get Giuliani'd (ruined reputation, legacy, and fortune) by his participation in the Trump administration.

Trump is the devil incarnate.  He ruins everything and everyone he touches.  But, for now, he's our devil incarnate.

Isn't 'democracy' grand when voters are left with a choice between vomit or diarrhea.

Could swear these were du talking points.
