Summary
Washington Capitals legend Alex Ovechkin made history on Wednesday by becoming the first player in NHL history to reach 900 career goals during a 6-1 victory over the St.
Louis Blues.
The 40-year-old reached the unprecedented milestone in his 21st season with a spin-around backhand shot, further cementing his legacy after having already surpassed Wayne Gretzky's long-standing scoring record last year.
