Just a quick follow-up to a post I made a few weeks ago about Alex Ovechkin pushing for 60 goals. At the time he had 54, and as of tonite he has 61.

I'm pretty excited he got to 60. It means that the NHL has indeed opened up some in the past few years. Ovechkin is obviously very talented, but the cool thing is that he is genuinely excited for his team's success. He celebrates his own goals, and he also celebrates his teammates with just as much exuberance.

Gabby could learn a thing or two.

Alex Ovechkin scored his 54th goal of the season tonite. With 14 games to go, he only needs 6 to get 60. That would be a huge accomplishment in today's age of defensive hockey.

The question for you is...can he do it? And if so, how impressed will you be?
