Alex Ovechkin NHL record goal collectibles hit market
A new sports memorabilia company has unveiled a set of unique collectibles commemorating Alex Ovechkin’s record 895th career NHL goal.
Ovechkin scored his record-setting goal on April 6, surpassing Wayne Gretzky for the most goals in NHL history.
The items are the first pieces of memorabilia offered from the Capitals by Monumental Sports Authentics, which offers game-used and team-issued memorabilia from the Washington Capitals, Washington Wizards, and Washington Mystics.
The four commemorative pieces include an 895 Milestone Commemorative Net; 895 Elite Commemorative Ice; 895 Heritage Commemorative Net; and 895 Tribute Commemorative Ice. Each limited-edition piece is embedded into a cheery wood box with golden shavings used in the creation of the NHL Golden Stick presented to Ovechkin during his celebration ceremony at Capital One Arena on April 10. They are priced from $895-$1,499.
