An Ovi Hat Trick Put Him In All Sorts Of Legendary Company And Is Now 2 Behind Mario Lemieux For 10th ALL TIME
Number 29, from the office.
Number 30, a beautiful set piece off the draw.
And number 30, on a BEAUTIFUL pass from Stanley Cup champion Tom Wilson.Let’s watch that again…
Holy mackerel. Not bad for a thug with no talent!
With his 2nd goal of the night Ovi joined elite company in having 15 straight 30 goal seasons.
One of 3 to do it, anddddd
One of 2 to do it from his first season. That’s just unbelievable consistency.
He now is 2 goals shy of passing Mario Lemieux for 10th on the all time scoring list. One ties, two passes him and cements him in the top 10 ALL TIME. That’s just crazy to even think about. At 34 years old. Christ.
And not for nothing, Ovi is a huge fan of scoring goals on January 16th. Case in point,
14 years ago. I was still in high school when that goal happened. I’m 31 now. Life moves fast man. Savor it. Cherish it.
