Considering the whole organization is going to do everything possible to make sure he gets it, it's pretty safe to assume that he will do so. They'll bank pucks in off his wheelchair if it comes to that

Lol! My former intern was a huge Capitals fan and he never liked me calling them 'Not a Serious Team.'

They got a Cup. They want Ovi to get this record. They know what they're about but its not about going for another Cup. Yet. Not until Ovi gets this record.

I bet behind closed doors the Hockey Ops people are hoping he does it sooner than later so he can retire and they can do a proper rebuild.

Had 31 goals last season, 24 after January.

Needs 41 to tie Gretzky.

Feels unlikely this season? Although perhaps motivation drives him more at this point that it's within reach.

Not sure about the offseason given the video memes about his weight.

He knows Washington will keep signing him to contracts to hit the record. Keeps getting money in his pocket, mutual want to hit that. After he gets the record Washington says “you can retire now”

He’s in no rush

That's an absurd take, lol. He's doing everything he can to get there as fast as he can as he nears the end of his career. Where do you people come up with some of these takes?

Ovi is already the greatest goal scorer of all time. Without the lockouts, this season would have been his victory lap, and next season just gravy. Maybe even chasing 1000.

Be that as it may, he won't even take down that picture. So #### him.

If Austin Matthews stays healthy and continues on his career pace Ovechkin won't hold it in the long term anyhow.

Its too bad Ovechkin missed 1.5 years due to lockouts. Likely would have passed the record by now.
