"On pure ability and the way he can still shoot the puck and with his power and strength, there's absolutely no doubt he can get there. He's also playing on a very good team. As great a goal scorer as he is, he's also been blessed to have a couple of great playmakers around him that make life easier for him (centers Nicklas Backstrom and Evgeny Kuznetsov). They work hand-in-hand; you can't have one without the other. Those guys are going to continue to play well so I don't see any reason [he wouldn't get to 800]. … All the years you watched Wayne Gretzky play, Wayne was driven to score every single shift. Didn't matter how much money he made, he just loved to compete, he loved to battle, win and to score. That was his driving force. I know with my dad it wasn't so much about scoring, it was about his passion for playing the game. He just loved to play the game of hockey. He still had that passion. In Hartford when they wanted him to retire at 52, he still wanted to play more. He was disappointed. His last year he was on the fourth line, didn't get much power-play time, and he still had 41 points (15 goals, 26 assists). He wanted to play. He still had that fire. As long as Alex has that fire and that passion for the game, and he puts in the time to stay in condition like the players have to do nowadays, there's no reason he can't score 800 goals.
