Filip Hallander, a top-line winger for the Penguins, scored his first NHL goal in the team's 4-2 win over the LA Kings.
Assisted by Rickard Rakell, Hallander became the latest Penguins rookie to achieve this milestone, following Harrison Brunicke and Ben Kindel.
"It feels good,"
Despite being outplayed, the Penguins were tied 2-2 in the third period, but Rakell and Hallander seized an opportunity for a shorthanded two-on-one, with Rakell ripping a shot past LA goalie Anton Forsberg, although it hit the crossbar.
