Milestones on Milestones | SLC Puck! Ep. 97

GRAB SOME ICE GIVEAWAY: https://www.slcpuck.com/p/giveaway-grab-some-iceIt’s time for Utah Hockey Club fans to start cheering for other teams. With the team on the brink of elimination from the playoffs, Utah not only needs to win out — the Club also needs some help from the opponents of Calgary, Minnesota and Vancouver. For example, as SLC Puck Austin Facer puts it, if Minnesota beats San Jose on Wednesday, Utah is effectively out of the postseason, regardless of how it plays out over the final five games.With playoff hopes on its last breath, Facer believes the Club will rely heavily not only on goaltender Karel Vejmelka, who fans can expect to see in net as long as Utah has a fighting chance, but also on captain Clayton Keller, who surpassed 500 career points in the NHL in the win over Winnipeg on Saturday.Keller’s mark, as impressive as it was, was just one of a few milestones in the NHL. The biggest, undoubtedly, was Washington forward Alex Ovechkin’s monumental achievement, becoming the NHL’s all-time leader in goals scored, a mark he reached on Sunday with the now-former record holder, Wayne Gretzky, in attendance.SLC Puck! is a twice-weekly podcast on Utah's hockey scene hosted by local hockey expert Austin Facer.
