It was a busy weekend for the Great 8 this weekend, as Alex Ovechkin scored against both the Bruins and Canucks, making it five straight games with a goal – and now, at 835, he’s within 60 goals of Wayne Gretzky's all-time goal record! And, one of those goals was Ovi's 57th empty-netter, breaking one of The Great One's other records for most of those in a career!
