WASHINGTON — Alex Ovechkin scored his 1,000th career NHL goal combining the regular season and playoffs, but the league-leading Colorado Avalanche beat the Washington Capitals 3-2 in overtime on Sunday.
Ovechkin’s goal, his 26th of the season, came from his traditional spot on the power play and tied the score with 5:43 left in regulation. He extended his career record (for regular-season goals) to 923, nearly a year since passing Wayne Gretzky for the most in league history.
Gretzky has 1,016 NHL goals: 894 in the regular season and 122 in the playoffs, the latter being a record the Great One still holds.
