The 'Most 30-goal NHL seasons' quiz

Created on April 1, 2026 | Total tries: 50 | Average Score: 18.2 out of 29 (63%) | Quiz FAQ

For the 20th time in his 21-year NHL career, Alex Ovechkin has scored 30 goals in a single season.

While Ovechkin spends more time extending his own scoring records rather than breaking those belonging to others (because he owns most of them), milestones like this have given Washington Capitals fans something to enjoy in an otherwise down season. Despite Ovechkin still providing a scoring punch, the Caps look set to miss the Stanley Cup Playoffs for just the fifth time in his two-decade tenure in the nation’s capital.

Which brings us to today’s quiz. Ovechkin is one of 29 players in NHL history to score at least 30 goals 10 or more times in their career. How many of those players can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
