I never thought that Gretzky's all-time goal scoring record would be broken, class act of #8 not scoring into an empty net for his record breaking goal...
The sports record that will never be broken is Joe DiMaggio's 56 game hit streak....

They play the Islanders tomorrow, so that's sort of like an open net...

Gretzky didn't think his record could be broken, but I'm sure he's happy a Russian broke it. #magacocksucker
