Not a Caps fan, but 100% an Ovi fan ! This guy brought a new meaning to hockey. It'll be decades before we see another Ovi & I'm not ruling out McDavid on anything, but Ovi set the stage for Connor. Congratulations Alex !! Much Love !

Time after time he's proven that he is the greatest goal scorer in the world ! He deserves this ! He'll be remembered for ever and I am glad I was around to witness it ! I seen Howe ive seen Gretzky I'm WACHING OVIE ! He's not done yet !

@soulessshadow5356 Рік тому

@@LOtarie I was to young to get to watch Gordie, but I did get to see the prime of Gretzky's career both on TV and in person at games and man was he fun to watch. I feel lucky to get to see Ovi do what he's done, and despite what people may think of his off the ice stuff(mainly the political stuff as he's never been a problem causer) it's hard to argue against what he's done. Despite the great amount of respect I have for Gretzky, I have equal respect for The Great 8.

@johnnysockov2755 Рік тому

Sorry Clem he will never be the best goal scorer in the game. Even Austin Mathews has a better goal percentage than your boy Ovi. Mike Bossy is the best goal scorer per game and Ovi will never come close to it. Mario is second and your boy won't touch him either. So your statement doesn't have any validity. He's good but not even in the top five which will be hard to beat any of them.

@user-ub9wt8tk2w Рік тому

@@johnnysockov2755 It's very funny to compare the incomparable stuff. Those two are differents eras. With due respect you could compare Ovie with Cy Denneny and Cecil 'Babe' Dye because they also have higher gpg percentage, but they were born in 19th century) True that Auston is incredibly good, also Connor may to pass both Auston and Ovie in goals. But right now Ovie is the 2nd greatest after Gretzky. Even overall goals for career are not the best feature to compare players with one another but it's probably one of the suitable. All the best

he would have been the youngest to break the Gretzky's record had it not been for stupid lockouts and covid ....... that totally slowed him down...... otherwise he would have broken that record a long time ago..... it is sad that he has to play until he is 40 or 41....... at that age he should be retired and enjoying life......now he is forcing himself to play out of pure pride and recognition.....he will break it no doubt but he'll be past his prime....... Lemieux would have broken Gretzky's all time scoring record easily.....had he not been hampered with injuries.....

@jon8004 Місяць тому

@@abyssshriek7631 I think a number of guys are as good at scoring goals as Ovi. The one thing none of them seems to have, and the one thing that's seemingly superhuman, is Ovi's resilience, which makes little sense considering the heaviness of his game. The guy basically doesn't get seriously injured. I remember Tony Kornheiser saying that if Ovie was American he would have been an NFL cornerback, not a hockey player, which I think has something to do with it.

@19MichaelDixon Рік тому

However, as a team, they own an equally impressive milestone: It will soon be 56 years since last winning a Stanley Cup. The curse of Harold Ballard lives on. It will be a 4 game sweep for TB.

Has he ever seen the short side of the defensive zone outside of warmups? I get he is great at slamming the puck home when he is set up, but has he ever set anyone else up? He single candidly coughed up a goal against the Wild, and that loss closed the door on their season. He did stick around to greet a kid along with Minnesota's Kiprizov, who was tossed from the third floor of the Mall of America and survived, he's a great ambassador to the game.

@aurorasstorm5877 Рік тому

You might want to look up his assists and then ask yourself your own question. It's really kind of silly to make it sound like he's only gotten those goals because he was greedy and selfish, but then turn around and try to give him a back handed compliment about sticking around to meet a child who nearly died after making it seem like he's only there for himself. It's apparent you don't know very much about him, or his career both on and off the ice and just how much he's done for so many people and organizations as well.
