RIPPA Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 The NHL is exploring expanding the season to 84 games - mainly to eliminate the divisional imbalance. Basically the extra two games would mean you would play everyone in your division 4 times (instead of the current 3-4 setup) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elizium Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 I've always wondered why they randomly had 84 games seasons for a couple years in the early 90s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuetsar Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 (edited) Ovechkin ties how in goals. I don't follow hockey much, is he gonna catch Gretzky? Edited December 24, 2022 by Kuetsar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elizium Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 (edited) Assuming no injuries, yes in 2 seasons. He should be about 60 behind after this season ends. Possible he could do it next season, but more likely early in the one after. Less likely is catching Gordie Howe's combined NHL/WHA total of 975 Edited December 24, 2022 by elizium 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted December 24, 2022 Author Share Posted December 24, 2022 And if you ever want to see why Gretzky is criminally underrated in the greatest athletes of all time conversation, just look up the total points he's scored (G + Assists). He'll never be caught. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
