A nice deflection by the former Barrie Colt ended up being the game-winner, and a moment the youngster will never forget. Neither will the record books.
The No. 2 overall pick in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft became the first ever player born in the 2000s to score a goal in the National Hockey League.
Carolina’s victory vaulted the club to a 2-0-1 record to start the season, and though it’s early in the campaign, the club is celebrating its two points with style.
