In his quest to be the NHL’s greatest goal scorer, Alex Ovechkin is now eight goals away from hockey immortality. The Washington Capitals superstar scored career goal No. 887 as he continues to close in on Wayne Gretzky’s longstanding record of 894 goals. More: www.nytimes.com/athletic/619...

This would be an excellent time to deport him back to Russia.

People in the comments here surprised that guys who devote their lives to being good at a sport might actually be really fucking stupid. Guys, they're dumb jocks, what do you expect.

Most goals is not “greatest”. It’s most. The greatest goal scorers was Mike Bossy.

Fuck You USA. Seriously, Fuck Off, you’re pathetic @makhuit.bsky.social

Maybe, but fuck Gretzky’s who went out of his way to support trump. Ovi may have chosen to support Putin, but he certainly didn’t have a choice. Gretzky always had the opportunity to be better, he chose to be the biggest asshole Canada has ever produced.

Maybe we'd be better off sticking Gretz & Ovechkin in the Thunderdome & let them work it out.

I met him once many years ago in DC at a place called Russia House. It was like being in Moscow. The woman I was with was Russian and everyone was kowtowing to he. Alexi came over to our table. We had vodka and caviar and they spoke a lot in Russian. He got up and hugged her and then me.
