When Alex Ovechkin sets the NHL's all-time goal scoring record, "The Great One" will be there. Wayne Gretzky will be part of a traveling caravan that will attend every Washington Capitals game until Ovechkin breaks the record, according to Chris Johnston of The Athletic.

Svechnikov, the Carolina Hurricanes forward, would love a front row seat to watch his fellow countryman score his 895th NHL goal and break Wayne Gretzky's all-time record of 894 that has stood since No. 99 scored his last goal on March 29, 1999.

The game will be stopped for a ceremony when Alex Ovechkin passes Wayne Gretzky for most all-time goals, regardless of playoff implications.
