Honestly that #1 goal is probably the nicest ever. Pure brilliance
It's nowhere near the nicest goal ever, in fact it's one of the ugliest goals of all time. It's the fact it should've been impossible and no one has ever scored a goal like that that makes it so impressive.
My favourite is number 4
I think Rick Nash's goal vs Florida is the greatest goal of all time.
@@lelouchvibritannia4028 Mario Lemieux coming down on Hall Of Famer Raymond Bourque and making him look like Morgan Rielly, is hard to beat.
@@markandersen793 Lemieux was great, but on that goal, it looked like Bourque wasn't giving it his all. Also, if you want see an unbelievable goal, look no further than Joe Sakic's goal in Game 7 of the 2001 Stanley Cup Finals, where he shot an unbelievable wrister through the legs of Scott Stevens and past Martin Brodeur, two hall of famers.
Долгих лет жизни Александр
I laughed hysterically when the announcer says "What is this guy, some kind of hockey player???"
Is this guy somekind of hockey player 😂😂😂 I laugh too.
Jeremy Falkner say what if you sleep with your sister. Jeremy Falkner:What?
That was Bob Cole. He always said things that left you shaking your head.
'What were they on when they made this game?.. A beer? Prolly two?' Yeah that one was funny.
man alex can do things,absolutely insane i love that guy
As a Caps fan the best part is that Ovie has always been dedicated to staying in DC his whole career - he just signed a 5year contract ext thru 25-26 season and seems highly motivated to catch Gretzky 😀
He also has an owner who basically said, and then acted upon it, that Ovechkin would stay in DC whatever his demands were.
He'll easily do if this season is a testament to his next couple years.
Didnt even start the video but we all know the Phoenix goal is #1
The Sin Bin yep
Probably the best goal ever...
@@Notorious_Gz I'd argue the Rick Nash goal vs Florida was better, but this one is also ridiculous.
S Choudhry You mean against Phoenix?
@@Notorious_Gz Oh yeah. Forgot that it was vs the Coyotes.
Imagine if Ovi played in the 80’s when players would just skate into the zone and slapshot the puck from the blue line. Greatest goal scorer of all time.
paul bissonnette would dominate in the 80s. The skill level, speed and equipment have evolved so much the 80s players wouldn't even compete with CHL teams
@@daniellee7355 Because he best at the all time
@@kenieyes Except in the playoffs...
And the goalkeepers in 70-80's, was a thin stick (not an ordinary stick) we call them that in Russia - Палки
@@CalleSoderberg 3rd most playoff goals among active players only because Marleu hasn't retired yet.
Овечкин это, конечно, нечто! Гол в последнем видео просто шедевральный!!!
Been a Caps fan since my first hockey game in Landover. Had to wait 42 years for a cup and Ovi gets a huge amount of credit for it because of his drive and determination. The Caps game is usually the one game we go to every year since the Jets came here to become the Coyotes. My three sons and I were upper deck front row right above the net. We didn't know at the time that we had just witnessed what would arguably be the greatest goal ever. What happened IMO was that Mara{D} thought he took him out of the play. So did Boucher{G}. What happened next defines Ovie's style and career. He doesn't quit when it comes to the attack. Everybody in the arena watched the replay on the big screen and had the same reaction. Gretzky's says it all. At first a little bewilderment, and then he shakes his head and gives a little Monalisa smile, priceless. Later in the post game, he was asked for his thoughts on Ovechkin, and he said, "I wish we had him". Barring serious injury, and aside from the figuring for inflation debate, he will beat the all time goals record. I'm not going to debate, but has your guy ever impressed the Great One?
Не фанат хоккея, но невозможно не восхищаться тем, что он делает.
А что он делает хочется спросить ??? Таких голов и таких проходов вагон и маленькая тележка , есть и голы и проходы вашему Овечкина и не снилось . Вся команда играет на него возвысили змею до небес . Диферамбы ему поете так поставьте ему при жизни памятник !!! Почти все его голы это труд всей команды , да я согласен что нужно лидера поддерживать но что вы не видите он тупо стоит и ждёт пасса в своем загашнике а ребята бьются что-бы этот забил гол да он уже еле шевелится . А сколько в НХЛ по возрасту такие же но они летают по корту сами забивают и не трут шкуру у пристроенного места . Я не знаю как его ещё терпит команда но была заметка что руководство Вашингтона обязала играть на Овечкина . И была заметка что среди команды и среди болельщиков уже давно идёт ропот Но видимо этот лизоблюд так прогнулся что ни смотря на все его косяки руководство ещё требуют что-бы они играли на него в ущерб команде . Когда нет Овечкина и команда играет нормально не провально как некоторые пишут и выигрывают и проигрывают это игра . А когда он играл за Россию ну хоть кто нибудь ответьте мне он вообще почти не забивал понторез . А сколько раз меняли капитана вспомните и Ковальчук и Дацук был !!! Вот почему ваш ( великий ) вообще не смотрелся только бестолку катался по корту . Ведь великие игроки им без разницы где играть они везде забивают !!! Без команды Вашингтона ваш Овечкин вообще никто !!!!
Ой не скули фанатик Бостона @@zwm.
Заглохни, овощ. Тебе объяснять - себя не уважать.@@zwm.
64 out of the top 65 (and 94 out of 100) highest points per season among NHL players, occurred in the 70's, 80's and 90's. Scoring was DEFINITELY easier back then, than today! Ovechkin is the GOAT of goal scoring!
Greatest goal scorer of all time no debate he’d be averaging 4 goals a game in any other era
OviFan98 I hope he breaks the all time goals !
TRich Gaming he has to play until he’s like 45-48 so he’s gonna have to be jagr 2.0ing it hell have way way more gp then gretzky
@@ImmortalWombat 2019-20 - 35 goals 2020-21 - 35 goals 2021-22 - 42 goals 2022-23 - 40 goals 2023-24 - 37 goals 2024-25 - 27 goals 2025-26 - 20 goals The above scenario (after this season) would total 236 goals, putting Ovechkin first on the all-time goal-scoring list with 897. That is very possible for Ovie to achieve if he stays as healthy as he has been.
Joonas I still think he has another 50 goal season or 2 left so that will lower the goals needed later in his career, very possible
@@newfie1613 So do I, that was just copied from some article the NHL published before this past season
Последний гол это конечно вообще какой-то шедевр! На спине, под таким углом к воротам, издевательски медленно закатывать шайбы.........., ну что ещё для зрелища нужно?! ))
Этот гол признан самым красивым в истории нхл
@@user-sp3tu7qd2t , может вы и правы... НО!!! Харламов, Датсюк, Ларионов???
@@shiplover100 никто не преуменьшает заслуг других. Но нельзя не признать что лучшим игрокеом НХЛ скоро станет россиянин
Гг
@@user-hd4sn8cf5k И что здесь хорошего? Вы знаете, откуда такие огромные деньги в НХЛ? За чей счет пир? Сегодня, вообще, сфера профессионального спорта поставлена на рельсы финансовой системы, созданной англо-саксонской элитой для очень не приглядных целей. Зная это, и не только, у меня нет гордости, как у россиянина, за Овечкина. Больше чем уверен, он знает, что и по чем! Подобные системы, безбожные в своей сути, периодически меняют своих хозяев. Скоро этот пузырь лопнет, как и всегда.
LEGEND OVI
I knew Gretzky was the Coyotes coach at the time of "the goal", I just found out today that an 8 year old Auston Matthews was in the crowd for that game. What an amazing thing to witness!!
The greatest goal scorer of all time I don’t care what you say Ovi is the best goal scorer The great 8!!!🥇🥇🥇
Ovi is best of the best!
I affirm that
катя катя agreed
Pavel bure the best )
the best thing he did - made Washington Capitals as a top club, and gave 1st cup. I am not caps fun, but it is my opinion. So many years in one team, with fantastick hardwork and faith in result.
FantaSTICK sorry I had to
Александр Елисеев so true. The first time they went to the SCF a few thousand people waited at their practice facility for them, me being one of them. Ted Leonsis and Ovi made DC a hockey town. Thank God because being a Caps fan since the 1970s it was hard to follow because only a few games were televised!
I live in the area and have seen this place turn into a real hockey town. That arena is packed mid season and and on week nights. We are truly lucky to have him (and Backy) here. I'd also add though, he (and Crosby as much as I hate to say it) have really played a major role in keeping the league alive imo.
@@anubrakahn2970 Backy doesnt get enough credit. I love the guy. He just plays hockey. Not looking for accolades or spotlight. I love the guy.
@Skeeter You're outta your mind
The greatest team sport in the world with Alex making it even more exciting.
Ovi is to DC what Ray Lewis was to Baltimore. One single force multiplier that singlehandedly creates a culture of contending through their inhuman feats of dominance despite being among the most disrespected and having clear media bias against them. He is the history of the Capitals. Our city loved our team but we had one good year in 98 and just cheered a bunch of bums passionately like Cleveland fans. Ovi made us a city teams feared going to. He hit the biggest baddest goons so hard, they yielded. He got the world to talk about a dc team in the championship picture and broke the DC curse. When he’s gone, hockey just won’t be the same. DC won’t be the same.
1-е место - лучший гол за всю историю 🏒
Дацюк более историчен)!
согласен
@@user-uc7qy7ie7n Это точно. Дацюк это хоккейный волшебник .
Во всех поколениях у нас есть феномены в хоккее, в 90-х тот же Павел Буре "Русская ракета" 👍🇷🇺
его на 2 место поставили, причем 1-место полная хрень
Greatest Goal of All Time
Simply sensational!!! Best goal of all times! 🏒🥇🏆
Still watching this in 2022, as he breaks NHL record after record! Safe to assume he's not past his prime, even though he's 37 (that's 90 in hockey years). Go Ovie! Long mey you run!
And, on top of all of that talent, he's a regular guy type of personality. He is my favorite player from his era.
Последний гол - это лучший гол в истории хоккея, среди ВСЕХ игроков ВСЕХ ВРЕМЕН! Признано НХЛ на официальном уровне!
Одолевает гордость за таких как Ови!!
Давай будем называть Овечкин
Greatest goal of all-time
4 of these highlights (and one honorable mention) are from playoff games. Ovi always brings his best for the postseason
Those two plays where he scored while falling on the ice were brilliant! On the first he regained control by deflecting the puck in as the goalie left, on the other he just did a miracle spin and somehow perfectly flicked it in. Wtf?
Im in tears watching this. The definition of passion and determination
THE GLAZING IS CRAZY
Высшая похвала для виртуоза в хоккее, сравнение его с виртуозами и мастерами мяча в НБА. Овечкин впечатал себя в историю, создал нетленные голы! Мастер по работе на льду!
ты не смотрел Буре и Дацюк, Овечкин в сравнении с ними пацан.
@@user-zq9df3xb4u Ovenckin is better then both.
i love way the ovechkin skates, such power
Ovechkin has made some great plays
последняя шайба, гол на все времена!!!!!
Обсолют!
Это даже не хоккей, а акробатика какая-то 😀
Это какой-то фокус- мокус!
this man is a hockey legend.
Ovechkin plays with such authority.
As a caps fan for my entire 20 year old life, I've been a caps fan. He's been so much fun to watch since I was a little kid.
- Can you describe Ovi with one word? - GOAT 🐐
No lol
Mad Tunes GOAT - Greatest of all time, с переводом думаю разберёшься
yesyesyesyesysyesyesyes
If you were a true caps fan, you’d obviously know that Goat is the guy who starts the “let’s go caps” chants. Every game he does that, and he goes to every game. Kind a famous person in the capitals fan base, just a fun fact I’d like to share. 🙂
One of the best ever to play the game!
The #1 goal was straight out of the Michael Jordan highlight reel. Been real lucky to have seen Tyson, MJ, Tiger, Barry Sanders, Gretsky, and Ovechkin perform in my lifetime (amongst others...but those in particular).
красавчик👍👍👍 пахарь... сам себя сделал... уважение...
Man I love Ovi. He is something really special. Our proud and joy! Mother Russia loves you
Stanley Cup champion, Alex Ovechkin.
Born 88 didn't get into hockey until the crazy 90s was happening but thank you hockey gods for for to watch his whole career what a trick it was n still is. The huge hits the beautiful goals where just amazing to watch
Even as a PIT fan it's impossible to deny, he's one of the greatest to touch a puck. #6 still stings to watch.
As a caps fan for 25 years maybe even closer to 30 , I can honestly say I love hating y'all in a competitive way. But I appreciate every single thing that your team over the years have done for the NHL and growing the sport in areas where it wasn't the most popular. I'm all over the place when it comes to my favorite teams. The only home team I cheer for has always been the capitals. I've lived in Maryland my whole life and growing up my Uncle lived in Texas and we went to visit. I was 5 and he bought me a cowboys jersey. #11 Danny white. Been a fan ever since. Coming home from school I got out @ 3:00 and we had WGN the Chicago station. In Chicago there behind in time zone. It was 3:05 here but 2:05 out there. almost every day the Cubs game came on because they didn't have lights on the stadium until recently. So hearing Harry Carey daily I naturally became a Cubs fan and by 3:15 did my homework watching the Cubs game. I was a Celtics fan growing up because they were always on channel 4. And how could you hate Larry Bird. Today the 2 I really have stayed with are the cowboys and the Capitals. It's weird with my brothers watching a hockey game because it's the only time we're rooting for the same team lol. Back in the day it was Mario and Jager . And I hated them. But now I have a healthy respect for rivalry's and competition. I thought I hated the Redskins. I still do, but I miss the Days of RFK and Riggins and Thiseman and Monk ... You can't be great unless you're going up against equal competition. Alex Ovechkin and Crosby have done more for the sport then any other dynamic duo in the history of the game. It won't be the same when they're both gone.
Oh it stings? Imagine 09’ 16’ 17’ for us
Will Duff Aw lets cry about it
Hazardous 088 I can and I will
Will Duff Can I taste them?
Already considered to be top 3 goal scorer of all time and once he retires I’m positive he will go down as the best in history
Hes #1 there isnt even a debate.
What about Gretzky ?
@@m4z3x even gretzky has admitted mario and bossy were better pure goal scorers, no one thinks gretzky is the best goal scorer anymore boomer.
I think that might be an overstatement at least until McDavid retires too, haha.
I’m a Pens fan and I was pissed in the moment but after we got knocked out I was half cheering for ovi ( not the caps lol) to win because watching him and sid battle so hard over the years he deserved one as much as anyone in the league. It was good to see. Now this year If the pens don’t win it would be cool to see joe Thornton win a cup before he retires
Seth Peters The Hat trick game will go down as one of the top Caps Pens moments of all time. Ovi Crosby at their best. No losers that day.
Саша ты молодец!не отступать ! Жми! Ты гений!
Backstrom is a beast with the GOAT assist for #6. Amazing patience with the puck.
Arguably one of the best to ever lace up, Played physically like messier, stick handled like deni savard ,skates live IVONNE CORNNYAI, FINALLY WON A CUP ,MIGHT END UP SCORING MORE GOALS THAN EVEN GRETZKYS UNTOUCHABLE TOTAL AND WE GET TO STILL WATCH HIM PLAY!
AND OV IS A CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED PLAYMAKER. LIKE HE HAS MADE MORE THAN A FEW DISGUSTING FEEDS IN HIS CAREER SO FAR!!!
@@MrJordwalk Yes thanks for reminding me ,so glad he played entire career in nhl,there have been alot of great players from Russia that came over to nhl late in their careers or left in their prime ,we have been blessed by hockey gods, to have his entire career here,he has a legitimate shot at all time career goals
The greatest goal scorer of all time and it's not even really a discussion
legend!!!!
So much strength on the ice + so much skill with the puck = The Great 8!
The #1 goal is a true feat. Of desperation and yet uncunning skill. This is admirable.
You said it. I don't care what sport you play or watch, this guy is an inspiration for athletes anywhere.
Ovie is the GOAT. To have the type of success he has had as a pure goal scorer in the modern era is amazing. Gretzky is a close 2nd though. #9 is GOAT celly too
Козёл вообще то для русского оскорбление
Ови как всегда КРУТ! Голы 1и3 вообще огонь!!!
His back and forth losing balance goal is one of my fav goals... I remembered using that at highschool in hockey ball, outspeed, backhand handling and the same finish as Ovy.
Саня - Лучший!
i love watching when ovechkin was ovechkin. entered zones like a bat out of hell, put people through the glass, could outskate and outwork anyone. He's taken more of a brett hull role now that hes a bit up there in age. the caps were smart to dial him back a bit and utilize his incredible shooting potential. if he maintained his old style we would have seen him retire several years ago. but those first few years in the league were fire
Such an ungodly talent.......... No. 5, not just the goal but afterward, getting back up, forever freaks me out. Unreal.
I love that one of these is from this season. Just shows that his age hasn’t caught him yet
Гений нашего времени!
The goal, still the most amazing thing I've seen in nhl
Саня Красавчик!!! Казахстан!
Это Овечкин, Вашики точно не прогадали когда то давным давно
Не прогадали не то слово.
Красиво,волшебно!!!!💯🔥🔥🔥 Приятно смотреть!!! Всем спортсменам- Здоровья!!!!!🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Саша уже вошёл в историю хоккея. Он продолжает её переписывать. История самое главное он реально получает удовольствие. Удачи Ови
The play and pass to Wilson was amazing.
He’s a legend! Love him
My favourite is # 4 .. it's insane!
“He OnLy ScOReS fRoM oNe SpOT”
The fact that he still scores from that spot even though everyone knows it's coming is impressive on its own. He's been doing it for a long time and you still can't stop it
But WHAT A SPOT
The spot he chooses to stand.
I think that comment was a bit sarcastic and mocking those who continue to say he only scores from one spot. ...
Hockeyguy25 someone gets it lol
Удивительно, что до сих пор есть идиоты, которые считают, что Ови не командный игрок. Каждой команде бы такого "некомандного" ..
Так скажем в начале карьеры Овечкин действительно был индивидуалистом. По мере развития его карьере в лиге он развивался как командный игрок. Как результат чемпионский сезон когда Саша тащил и как плеймекер и как снайпер.
Твой ови конченный идиот, в "команде" ботоксной моли состоял.

Best player of all time
Greatest player of the era
Ovechkin's great and everything but can we take a minute to appreciate Voros in the #2 goal, protecting Ovechkins head from hitting the boards. As a Bruins fan, I have no doubts Marchand would have Toboggan'd' him into the boards if in a similar play.
"Bats it out of the air, a la Crosby" is the single most disrespectful sentence ever said by any human ever.
Blake Allen he’s older than Crosby too, pretty sure he’s bated the puck midair before Crosby ever did.
typical Pierre
Roman Borris Crosby has scored so much of those goals
Timmy Bits I’m aware. He’s another legend
Because Crosby has done it many many times... use your head
АЛЕКСАНДР ВЕЛИКИЙ!!Респект из Киргизии!!!!!!!!
Уже легенда! УДАЧИ Ови👍👍👍
Greatest goal scorer of all time change my mind
If he keeps this up for a few years I don’t know what could stop people from saying he’s not better than Gretzky. He’s the greatest player of the generation and with each passing day he takes one step further towards being the G.O.A.T.
When we looked at career, , it was already felt and known that we could see something very special! What is the greatest recognition, however, is that his contemporaries made a statement and said with laughter that it was almost never possible to take the puck from him ............ I think the fans of the other teams also looked at them with a smile on their faces any summary and amazing and unique moves. I'm sorry I couldn't watch the best 100 plays with you in the summary: :)))
Ether he a robot or he sent by the GODZ💯🐐
The Phoenix goal was so epic that my husband, who has zero interest in hockey showed me the goal. That said my top 4 are 4th Phoenix goal, 3rd NJ goal, 2nd NYR goal and 1st Habs goal. No matter how many times I watch it I can’t follow the puck and how he changed direction so fast.
Ови, реально крут. Мало кто может повторить подобное.
GREATESSTTTTT!!!OVI ❤️
How many diving goals has this man scored? He falls, scores, and gets back to his feet before he hits the boards like a wizard!

Ну что тут скажешь? Ови - один из величайших хоккеистов всех времен, не важно, догонит он Грецки по голам или нет.
How do you know Putin and Ovechkin like having anal sex together ? Do you have photos or something ?
That was awesome…what an incredible hockey player
