Josh Morrissey, the Winnipeg Jets defenceman, is gearing up for a historic night as the Jets face off against the Washington Capitals and Alex Ovechkin, who is just seven goals shy of Wayne Gretzky's all-time goal record. Both teams are in a fierce battle for the Presidents' Trophy, making this matchup highly anticipated. The Capitals lead with 102 points, while the Jets are close behind with 100.

Ovechkin, known for his scoring prowess, continues to astound the league with 888 career goals, including 35 in the current season despite having missed 16 games due to injury. Morrissey and fellow Jets players, including Nino Niederreiter, acknowledge the excitement surrounding Ovechkin's chase, viewing it as a significant moment in their careers to compete against such a legendary figure. Meanwhile, the Jets will adjust their lineup without Gabriel Vilardi, adding another layer of intrigue to this critical game.
