Matvei Michkov scores 2, Alex Ovechkin gets #879 in Capitals 4-3 win over Flyers

Alex Ovechkin moved closer to Wayne Gretzky’s all-time scoring record, notching goal #879 in the first period of Thursday’s game. His Russian counterpart in Orange & Black put on a show of his own for his legendary countryman, tallying a pair of goals and nearly netting his first career hat trick on a 3rd period Michigan attempt that came oh-so-close.

Ultimately, it was the Capitals prevailing in South Philly thanks to a couple third period goals.

Bill & Kelly break down the loss, and what was possibly the best game of The Mad Russian’s career.
