The goal, his 874th, leaves him just 21 shy of Gretzky&rsquo;s career total of 894. At 39, Ovechkin has already tallied 21 goals in 29 games this season, putting him on pace to surpass Gretzky&rsquo;s mark before season&rsquo;s end&mdash;potentially in fewer games than the 1,487 Gretzky played during his illustrious 21-year career.<\/p><p><em>&ldquo;I knew I should take a shot as soon as I can, because I knew (goaltender Leevi Merilainen) may be thinking I&rsquo;m going to pass it back to Sandy, And it was a good one, and it goes in the net, so I&rsquo;ll take it.&rdquo;<\/em> : <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/video\/uta-wsh-dubois-scores-ppg-against-connor-ingram-6368564332112\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>said Ovechkin.<\/a><\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">ANOTHER MILESTONE FOR OVI &#128293; <br><br>Alex Ovechkin has passed Phil Esposito for 11th place all-time in points with 1,591! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fQh34e7JSC\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/fQh34e7JSC<\/a><\/p>&mdash; NHL (@NHL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NHL\/status\/1888652963045884377?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>February 9, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Thursday&rsquo;s milestone goal came off a Rasmus Sandin pass during a 2-on-1 breakaway and marked Ovechkin&rsquo;s 27th career overtime game winner, a record he continues to extend.

Despite missing 16 games earlier this season with a broken fibula, Ovechkin made a strong return, scoring four goals in five games to close out 2024.<\/p><p>In another feat of consistency, Ovechkin recently joined Gordie Howe as the only player in NHL history to record 20 goals in 20 consecutive seasons, cementing his status as one of the game&rsquo;s greatest scorers.
