We're tracking Ovechkin's pursuit of Gretzky's goal record and trying to determine the game in which he's most likely to break the record.

Alex Ovechkin scored his 878th career goal into an empty net with 0.1 seconds left on the clock to move closer to Wayne Gretzky's NHL career record, and the Washington Capitals defeated the defending Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers 6-3 on Tuesday.

Alex Ovechkin has been regarded as one of the best goal-scorers of this generation. However, he is well on his way to breaking the previously unbeatable record of 894 career goals set by The Great One, Wayne Gretzky. The best part? He can break that record this season.
