Alexander Ovechkin has a chance tonight to make history and show everyone why he is great because Alex Ovehkin currently has 399 goals and this has been a wild month for the Capitals star and if he can score a goal tonight he will have 400 goals in his career. I think tonight Alex is going to make history and get that 400th goal and add another milestone to his already legendary career vs. the Hurricanes.

He leads the NHL with 28 goals, 4 goals ahead of Alexander Steen. If he can score his 400th goal tonight, he would be the 6th fastest player to get to 400 goals and the 89th player to get to 400. He is 2nd career leader for goals in Capitals history, 73 goals behind Peter Bondra. He is 163rd in the league in career points with 773 points.
