<p>Five games into the 2024-25 season, <strong>Alex Ovechkin</strong> stands just 40 goals away from <strong>Wayne Gretzky’s</strong> <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nhl">NHL</a></strong> scoring record. As the Washington Capitals star approaches this historic milestone, he has made a surprising revelation about his relationship with “<strong>The Great One</strong>.”</p>



<p>The 39-year-old Ovechkin has his <strong>sights set on a clear objective</strong> as he enters his 20th season. Following the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/washington-capitals">Capitals</a>’ 2018 Stanley Cup victory</strong>, there wasn’t much left for Ovi to achieve. However, the what’s on his mind could forever alter NHL history. </p>



<p>The Russian winger is closer to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/wayne-gretzky">Gretzky</a>‘s astounding feat than anyone has ever been. That said, <strong>Ovechkin’s yearly production has declined in recent years, and it might take him another full season</strong> to surpass the Edmonton Oilers legend.</p>



<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/alex-ovechkin">Ovechkin</a> opened his scoring account for the season with his 854th goal, putting him <strong>just 40 goals shy of Gretzky’s record of 894</strong>. While no player relishes the thought of their individual accolades being overshadowed, Ovechkin made a stunning confession about how Gretzky closely monitors his pursuit of the record. In fact, <strong>Wayne even texts Alex with encouraging messages</strong>.</p>

<p><em>“It’s great. Even when I have a slump, he will sometimes text me and say, ‘Don’t worry about it. It will come.’ <strong>He’s on my side</strong>. If that kind of person is rooting for me, it’s pretty cool stuff. He’s the best player out there and he’s a great human. He supports me and it’s a pretty cool thing. <strong>I hope when it’s going to be close, he’ll give me some advice. But not yet</strong>.”</em></p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nhl/nhl-makes-final-decision-on-new-york-rangers-captain-jacob-troubas-brutal-hit"></div>


<h2>Can Ovechkin reclaim his elite form?</h2>



<p>Last season, <strong>Ovechkin scored a career-low 31 goals in 79 games</strong> with the Capitals. However, he had a great second-half to the season, scoring 23 times in his final 36 appearances. Judging by the recent-years pace, Ovechkin would get his shot at the record during the 2025/26 season. </p>



<p>That is, unless we witness a vintage Ovi capable of scoring 40 times in a season. <strong>Not long ago, he tallied 42 goals during the 22/23 season</strong>. Whether last season was a fluke or a sign of what’s to come, remains to be seen.</p>



<h3>Power Play: Ovi’s best friend</h3>



<p><strong>Ovechkin will continue to operate from his office</strong>, positioned over the left faceoff dot, where he has <strong>made a living with his lethal one-timer</strong>. The Capitals have bolstered their roster with defenseman <strong>Jacob Chychrun</strong>, who poses a <strong>significant threat from the blue line</strong> and can create additional space for Ovechkin, a player who has proven he doesn’t need much open ice to find the back of the net.</p>
