Alex Ovechkin, nearing the significant milestone of 1,500 career games in the NHL, is grappling with uncertainty following a broken leg that sidelined him for over a month. Currently, Ovechkin sits at 20th in all-time games played among forwards, needing to play in 66 games this season to approach the record. Despite his injury, he remains on pace to surpass Wayne Gretzky's goal record, yet he has not committed to future contract discussions and hinted at possibly concluding his career in the KHL with Dynamo Moscow.
Now, Ovechkin is not making any guarantees he'll ever get to the mark due to a broken leg he suffered in November, which caused him to miss over a month of time.
Ovechkin currently ranks 20th in all-time games played among forwards and would be just the 16th to reach the 1,500-game mark.
