The Capitals defeated St. Louis 6-1 last night. Alex Ovechkin scored his 900th career goal in the rout, becoming the first NHL player to ever reach that plateau.
After Ovechkin scored the historic goal, Blues goaltender Jonathan Binnington tried to hide the puck in his pants. An official had to coax the goaltender to give the puck back.
