NHL exec Colin Campbell says the league is prepared for anything as far as validating goal No. 895, but, "Just please, please, no reviews."

Ovechkin isn't new to breaking records, he currently tied for most game-winning goals with Jaromir Jagr. Additionally, Ovechkin became the 60th player to record 700 career assists this season, a record also held only by Gretzky, Gordie Howe, Jagr, Marcel Dionne and Phil Esposito.

Despite the high stakes, Kane said he's excited to face Ovechkin in his quest for NHL history. The Capitals winger needs just eight more goals to top Wayne Gretzky's NHL record of 894, and Kane said it's "cool" to be part of the build-up.
