Was Ovechkin's record-breaking goal worth the wait? | Instant Reaction
About this episode
Jesse Granger and Sean McIndoe react to history being made as Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin scores his 895th career NHL goal, breaking Wayne Gretzky's record. Ovechkin scored the goal vs. countryman Ilya Sorokin and the New York Islanders. Sean Gentille, who witnessed the historic goal live at UBS Arena in New York, stops by to add his opinion on the great feat by Ovechkin, who stands alone now as the greatest goal scorer in the history of the NHL.
