Mark Spector, a Sportsnet reporter, has made a remark on Alex Ovechkin's success in this season. Ovechkin is on his way to breaking Wayne Gretzky's all-time goal-scoring record, a feat many thought impossible. Although he won't reach the record this season, every goal he scores brings him closer to achieving it.

However, Spector took to social media to dampen the spirits of those celebrating Ovechkin's achievement of scoring 20 goals this season. He questioned why people were making a big deal about it.

It has been noted that Ovechkin is outperforming Gretzky at his age, and it will be an extraordinary moment when he breaks the NHL record for the most goals.
