All the prospect rankings have still rated Demidov higher so I still might have preferred that Archived Message Posted by OB25 on April 4, 2025, 19:37:16, in reply to "I was very anti Levshunov" But he certainly looks the part and if they could get Misa this year it all works out pretty well. Previous Message But I’ll eat some crow here. He has more a ton of strides which was one of his the strengths his proponents mentioned. That he is a quick learner even if raw. Message Thread: | This response ↓ Assist-phobic Alex Ovechkin 4 goals away from breaking Gretzky’s record - timmer April 1, 2025, 21:06:50 What a goal to break it. Ripped it top left.* - voiceofreason April 6, 2025, 13:40:38 He broke the record in the exact same number of games (1487), crazy.* - OB25 April 6, 2025, 13:05:13 I did not think this was possible. Ovi is great - CanHartlebHireSnider April 6, 2025, 12:52:25 Now that he’s got the record is he expected to hang it up after the season?* - illini21 April 6, 2025, 13:17:40 He has talked about at least finishing his contract through 25-26* - Potomac April 6, 2025, 13:48:55 He’s got 40+ goals. He can keep going. He’s still good* - CanHartlebHireSnider April 6, 2025, 13:21:31 As someone that doesn’t follow hockey help put this in perspective for me - illini21 April 6, 2025, 12:12:43 Ovechkin is a pure goal scorer, Gretzky still far and away the better player overall IMO - OB25 April 6, 2025, 12:16:26 Gretzky by a mile. - bjl63 April 6, 2025, 12:14:19 Two miles. Wayne has 350 more ASSISTS than Ovi has in total POINTS - timmer April 6, 2025, 12:22:00 Okay that’s what I figured. Do you by chance know the stat I’m referring to? - illini21 April 6, 2025, 12:17:41 Guessing it’s the one about where Gretzky would rank in points even if he never scored a goal. - OB25 April 6, 2025, 12:19:41 Ha yeah that’s wild* - illini21 April 6, 2025, 12:21:26 Gretzky has more assists than anyone else has points* - CanHartlebHireSnider April 6, 2025, 12:18:39 That’s it! Thanks* - illini21 April 6, 2025, 12:19:01 Ugh, I hate even more that he’s going to break it against my Isles.* - voiceofreason April 4, 2025, 21:39:40 I hate it even more that they are doing a split-screen - timmer April 6, 2025, 11:54:43 TNT isn’t showing the split screen. I think that’s just the TruTV alt cast* - illini21 April 6, 2025, 11:56:11 Aaah. That’s better* - timmer April 6, 2025, 11:56:54 it won't be an empty net goal, which reduces the probability for Sunday* - Potomac April 5, 2025, 7:17:20 Hey at least it’s a sport nobody cares about* - illini21 April 4, 2025, 23:12:31 Ovi with an early goal vs. Hawks tonight, 1 shy of tying. Hawks also a lot more fun to watch… - OB25 April 4, 2025, 19:32:42 And he tied it* - OB25 April 4, 2025, 20:16:30 19 goals in 26 games; not exactly staggering to the end* - Potomac April 4, 2025, 20:29:04 Pujolsian * - PapaDels April 5, 2025, 21:37:39 I was very anti Levshunov - CanHartlebHireSnider April 4, 2025, 19:34:06 All the prospect rankings have still rated Demidov higher so I still might have preferred that - OB25 April 4, 2025, 19:37:16 They've got a bunch of interesting blue-liners. Need some more goal scorers* - UofIL6 April 4, 2025, 19:35:55 Sorry…I’ve been distracted by the Blues pulling a 2019. Is Ovi doing something?* - Desert April 1, 2025, 21:50:58 I'm an Oilers fan, but fuck Gretzky. I can't wait to see Ovechkin break his record. - Kajagoogoo April 1, 2025, 21:49:22 isn't Ovi a Putin guy? - Sammich April 2, 2025, 8:55:40 I think Ovi is a Putin guy in the sense that he doesn't want his family members to die - JacobRDaugherty April 5, 2025, 3:24:09 Well, fuck! - Kajagoogoo April 2, 2025, 9:36:05 ^^^^Commie! Commie! Commie ^^^^ - timmer April 1, 2025, 21:55:27 Strong take. Why?* - Desert April 1, 2025, 21:51:28 Link inside my post. - Kajagoogoo April 1, 2025, 22:28:38 I was better off not knowing any of that. Dammit* - Desert April 2, 2025, 0:47:58 Lot of people are mad at Gretzky over his friendship with Trump* - CanHartlebHireSnider April 1, 2025, 22:16:36 I hate that he’s going to break this record.* - voiceofreason April 1, 2025, 21:33:31 I thought ‘The Greatest‘S’ records would never be broke* - TarheelIllini April 1, 2025, 21:09:42 A good amount of them never will be* - ilinni11 April 1, 2025, 22:14:55 Of course until your team really tries to set up the guy to score goals - timmer April 1, 2025, 21:17:36 but hey, favre let strahan sack him* - torinese April 1, 2025, 22:30:08   Searching
