Chatting about this with a buddy who thinks he breaks it next year. Being generous let's say Ovi gets 10 more this season. So roughly ~35 to get the going into 2024-25.
It think it's possible given him and the Caps had a bad start to the year. And even if he doesn't, it's almost a certainty he will get there in the seasons after. Crazy.

And again....he's not potting these against 80s goalies or defencemen. This is a legit Modern Era record.
And he's had shortened seasons due to a lockout and the Pandemic.
Its Wild and I hope he gets it.
Forget all the rest of the Nonsense, but this would be amazing.
