Little pregame rituals can be sleep- or food-related. Or revolve around how they get dressed for a game. Or the way they warm up.
Alex Ovechkin broke Wayne Gretzky’s record for the most goals in NHL history by scoring the 895th of his career.
In Wayne Gretzky's hometown of Brantford, Ontario, and across Canada, the Great One's loyalty and legacy are being questioned at a time the nation's independence is being threatened by U.S.

The greatest goal-scorer of this generation was held without a point for the first time in a series in his nearly two-decade NHL career. The best goaltender in the league this season has given up a first round-high 19 goals.

Numerous teams are already being challenged to retain their own players. They include the Presidents' Trophy-winning Boston Bruins, who currently have less than $11 million of space and nine roster spots to fill. The bigger headlines are expected to come from teams re-signing their stars to long-term deals, such as the Sabres and defenseman Rasmus Dahlin. The Columbus Blue Jackets, meantime, are anticipated to announce the hiring of Mike Babcock as coach after his existing contract with Toronto expires on Friday.
“The call gives the whole thing color and defines the moment,” Brad May says of Rick Jeanneret’s iconic cries following the goal that gave the Sabres a 6-5 OT victory and a sweep of the Bruins – Buffalo’s first playoff series victory in 10
