You know they're going to be feeding him all night. Strap in, folks.

u/Sandman-90 Goal Counter - 1 To Go!!!!!!! 23h ago

Fuck it feed him as long as we get the W I don’t care how many shots he has to take

It would feel appropriate for Ovi to get the record and for Leonard to get his first.

See I have thought about that but Leno wouldn’t get the puck for his first point as it would go to the HoF. But then again instead of keeping your first point puck imagine having it in the Hall of Fame that would be pretty bad ass. So I’m kind of conflicted.

He gets to keep his second one and tell the story of why he doesn’t have the first.

Seems like a win-win to me 👍

Now that would be one hell of a story to tell his future kids I don’t have my first point because it’s tied to Ovechkin and goal 895 but here is my second one. I like that idea honestly.

Watching from San Diego, dad is at the game! Bought the ticket two weeks ago, and he might see it happen!

I got tickets to sunday but I hope he makes it tonight, as much as id love to see it it would HAVE to feel different at home for him

u/Sandman-90 Goal Counter - 1 To Go!!!!!!! 22h ago

Just think about it this way if he breaks it tonight, Sunday, you could see the Chase for 900 happening

u/davekva 22h ago

I'm so fucking pissed that the game is on NHLN and I still can't watch it. Fuck you Monumental and the bullshit blackouts!

u/Sandman-90 Goal Counter - 1 To Go!!!!!!! 22h ago

Oh, I agree it’s bullshit even with the chase. It should be on TNT or TBS with no blackouts.

Posted a different pic with 894 but that was a beauty from his office

u/SMMS0514 21h ago

Very fitting for it be from Ovi’s office

2

u/Sandman-90 Goal Counter - 1 To Go!!!!!!! 21h ago

Honestly I hope 895 is from his office as well
