Alex Ovechkin's pursuit of Wayne Gretzky's hallowed goal-scoring record has been a captivating storyline this season. With Ovechkin inching closer to the historic mark, each goal brings him one step closer to etching his name in NHL history.

However, Sportsnet reporter Mark Spector recently took to social media to temper the celebrations surrounding Ovechkin's 20th goal of the season, questioning the significance of the milestone in mid-March.

"Are we really celebrating Ovechkin scoring his 20th goal of the season in mid-March?" Spector pondered in his post.

While Ovechkin's achievement is undoubtedly commendable, especially at his age, Spector's comments raise valid points about the context of the milestone.

Despite this, Ovechkin's consistent excellence and potential to surpass Gretzky's record ensure that the hockey world will have plenty to celebrate when the time comes.
