Ovechkin Passes Howe (For Second Most Game-Winning Goals)

(Caps Outsider)

Even though the goal was just one of many in Monday’s 6-3 win against New Jersey, Alex Ovechkin’s power play goal turned out to be the game-winner, which gave him 122 in his career, one better than Gordie Howe. He tied Howe back in March.

Now Ovi only trails Jaromir Jagr, who has 135.

Ovi also scored his 783rd career goal, which is 19 away from passing Howe.
