Washington Capitals star Alex Ovechkin, who wears No. 8, has 888 career goals and needs seven in the team’s final 12 regular season games to break Wayne Gretzky’s record of 894. That’s a pace of 0.58 goals a game and he has been clicking at a 0.55 rate since he returned on Dec. 28 from a fractured left fibula, giving him a chance to break the record before the end of the season. The Capitals, who became the first NHL team to clinch a playoff berth this season, will play eight of their final 12 games on the road. Ovechkin scored one goal during a three-game homestand that ended Saturday. Washington will play the Carolina Hurricanes, New York Islanders and Columbus Blue Jackets twice.
