Alex Ovechkin Scores 887th Career Goal

During the Washington Capitals' 5-1 win over the San Jose Sharks on Saturday, Alex Ovechkin scored his 887th career goal to move within eight of breaking Wayne Gretzky's NHL record.

Ovechkin deflected a shot from Martin Fehervary past Georgi Romanov with 9:06 remaining in the third period to snap a bit of a slump.
