It's incredible that Gretzky has 2857 points (points is goals+assists) including 1963 assists.

That 1963 assists is more than any other player has of points (goals+assists)!!

Those records may very well be unbreakable. But they said that about just the goals until Ovechkin came along so... who knows.

Wow, I didn't realize this little bit of Ovechkin/Gretzky trivia before just now.

"Ovechkin got No. 895 in his 1,487th game — the same number Gretzky finished with.”

Now that's an impressive coincidence!

A lot of good detail in this report.

Ovi also has more 40 goal seasons than Gretzky. 14 vs 12, the most in league history. He is just an incredible, gifted, consistent workhorse and also seems to be a good person. (well, except the #RussiaUkraineWar / Putin stuff :( )

Does anyone remember the golden #Voyager record which sent encoded information about our own life form on voyages in the hope that an #alien life form would find it and decode it to communicate with us? 🛰️

Now, for centuries, we have had a #planet 🪐 right under our noses that looks like those rings are a giant #record

Could someone develop a record player that big to find out if it is coded #information left behind by an alien life form to communicate with us? 🤔

“Sen. Cory Booker has broken the record for the longest floor speech in modern Senate history, surpassing the late Sen. Strom Thurmond’s speech lasting 24 hour and 18 minutes in 1957.

The New Jersey Democrat, whose speech began at 7 p.m. ET on Monday, is still speaking in protest of actions taken by President Donald Trump’s administration.”
