There it is: No. 750.

The ageless, exceptional Jaromir Jagr became just the third player in NHL history to score 750 career goals, burying a centering feed from Aleksander Barkov in the second period of Thursday's matchup versus the Washington Capitals.

Only Wayne Gretzky and Gordie Howe have more goals than Jagr, who pulled within 51 of Mr. Hockey with the first goal of his 23rd NHL campaign.

Jagr also has 1,120 career assists, giving him 1,870 points - also third-most all time. But there's a realistic shot he'll eclipse Mark Messier for second in NHL history at some point this season; Jagr is just 17 points shy of the legendary captain.
