Zoned In On Alex Ovechkin

Alex Ovechkin is so close to immortality that he can almost touch it. He’s a mere eleven goals away from passing Jaromir Jagar on the All-Times NHL Goals list. That would place him in third place behind only Gordie Howe and Wayne Gretzky. At the clip Ovechkin is skating, it’s not hard to conceive the idea that he just may reach 895 goals. So, it’s no wonder that his cards have been shooting up in realized prices over the last month. Now, let’s get Zoned In On Alex Ovechkin.

Target Locked

This week we were Zoned In on Alex Ovechkin, and for good reason. As mentioned above, Alex is so close to the NHL’s All-Time Career Goals record that he can practically see it. The five cards listed here are great examples of both high-end and easily obtainable cards for every level of collector. If you haven’t already, now may be a good time to start looking into adding Ove to your collection. Then again, it may be too late.
