Washington Capitals star Alex Ovechkin scored his 891st career goal Tuesday to pull closer to Wayne Gretzky’s goal record. He needs four goals in the team’s final eight regular-season games to top Gretzky’s all-time mark of 894, starting Wednesday night in Carolina. That’s a pace of 0.50 goals a game, and he has been clicking at a 0.58 rate since he returned on Dec. 28 from a fractured left fibula, putting him on pace to break the record in one of the final two games of the season. The Capitals will play five of their remaining eight games on the road, including the last two. ESPN will present an OviCast on ESPN+ broadcasts on April 10, 12, 15 and 17. Each OviCast will feature an isolated camera on Ovechkin in one box with record-breaking information below, alongside the traditional game feed in a second box with his game stats. TNT will do the same on truTV for its April 2 and 6 broadcasts.
