Ovechkin Prop at Pinnacle

[michael_jackas$]

Pinnacle have a line on Ovechkin season goals over/under 63.5. http://www.pinnaclesports.com/Contes...als/Lines.aspx
What is the sisgnificance of that numer? Isn's Gretzky's record 92?

[Ripsnort]

It is just what he is on pace for.. 0.77G/G

When he breaks 60 it will get big headlines.. just lookup "60 goals" in Google and you'll see all the "Will he"/"Can he" articles

Thanks. Thinking it was the record tally for a Russian or somethin else. Checked on Wiki and the record for a left wing is 63, so though maybe it came from that.

He probably won't score 64. Maybe 60, but 64 is a bit high. He needs about a 68 goals per 82 games pace to get it.

Its because no one has done it in 12 years, Jagr and Mario in 1995-1996, had 69 and 62 respectively.

I really didnt see any value in these so I just laid off.
