Alexander Ovechkin made history Sunday afternoon on Long Island, passing Wayne Gretzky as the NHL’s all-time goals leader. Today, Max, Laz, and The Athletic’s Dan Robson discuss Ovi’s on-ice greatness, his off-ice support of Vladimir Putin, and the realities that will shape his legacy. Plus, The Athletic’s Jesse Granger joins the show to talk about the sweet spot of good goaltending and great goal-scoring the league is currently in, the real key to beating a goalie nowadays, and an Eastern Conference wild card check-in to close things out.
