The DFO Rundown Ep. 373 – Ovechkin stands alone with No. 895
After a historic weekend in the NHL, Frank and Jason decided to record this week’s edition of the podcast a little earlier. The two fired things up on a Sunday night to talk about Alex Ovechkin finishing his chase of the NHL’s all-time goal record as he found the back of the net for the 895th time and officially passed Wayne Gretzky at the top of the goal-scoring leaderboard.
The guys talked about the moment on Long Island, the ceremony, Ovechkin’s career and everything else surrounding the record-breaking moment.
From there, they talked about some other records and accomplishments that they’re love to see get accomplished. From Sidney Crosby to Connor McDavid to Cale Makar, there are some players who have a chance to do some pretty special things. That also led to some talk about just how much longer Crosby and Ovechkin will even be in the league.
They also talked about some goal records that could be accomplished and some that are just way too crazy to be matched.
Tyler then popped in for a new edition of Buy or Sell where he asked the guys about the Calgary Flames playoff chances both this year and beyond and also the playoff races in each conference.
They wrapped up by talking about the memorabilia craze that followed Ovechkin’s chase of the record and they took a quick look at the two playoff races in either conference.
