Blues Goaltender Jordan Binnington Explains Attempt to Keep Ovechkin's 900th Goal Puck
St. Louis Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington found himself at the center of a viral moment Wednesday night after allowing Alex Ovechkin's historic 900th career goal. Following the milestone, Binnington scooped up the puck and briefly hid it in his pants before returning it to a linesman. He later stated he "had full intention to give it back to him," joking he "basically had an assist on the goal." Binnington was pulled from the 6-1 loss to the Capitals after allowing four goals on 15 shots, with Ovechkin's 900th being the fourth he's scored against him. Despite the incident, Binnington praised Ovechkin's "incredible play" and continued legendary performance.
