Alex Ovechkin continues his chase to break Wayne Gretzky’s all-time regular season NHL goals scoring record of 894. Ovechkin has been on a scoring tear this season, with 39 goals in 59 games to give him a total of 892, despite missing time with a broken leg. Both Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals have been surprisingly hot this season, with Ovechkin logging his best goals per game ratio in years and the Capitals at the top of the Eastern Conference.

Ovechkin is one of the most distinguished players to step on the NHL ice, winning three Hart Trophies for most valuable player, nine Rocket Richard Trophies for most goals scored in a season and the 2017 Stanley Cup, the first championship in franchise history. Here are the remaining games for Ovechkin and the Capitals. Next up is a home game Friday against the Chicago Blackhawks at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN+.

For sports bettors, Ovechkin has been one of the NHL’s most popular bets as he continues to get closer to the Great One’s mark. Here are the special markets on ESPN BET Sportsbook to bet on Ovechkin’s record chase.
