Alex Ovechkin is definitely one of the best players in NHL history. He is currently in the hunt to break Wayne Gretzky's seemingly impossible record of 894 goals. Yesterday, Ovi broke another important mark, as he officially passed Gordie Howe for second place on the NHL's all-time scoring list when he scored his 801st and 802nd career goals against the Winnipeg Jets. Obviously, the 37 year old Russian star is a very special person, and I would add that he is even quite unique, as he does nothing like the others. We just learned what the Capitals' legendary number 8 drinks during games, and it's not water, Gatorade, or Bio Steel, which is the NHL's new soft drink partner, but Pepsi! Yes, yes, a soft drink! It's amazing to learn that a machine like him drinks Pepsi during games. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/BetMGM/status/1603035206881087491?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1603035206881087491%7Ctwgr%5E47412b8238accba46b247f512c553411465152f5%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.letsgohabs.com%2FOn-vient-dapprendre-ce-quAlex-Ovechkin-boit-durant-les-matchs-et-ce-nest-pas-de-eau-ou-du-Gatorade-190800'> </a></blockquote></div> An ESPN reporter explored this aspect. It is Pepsi that Ovechkin asks to have in his special bottle. He only drinks this beverage during the first period of games. It's quite a special way to hydrate, but clearly the formula works quite well, so who are we to judge!
