Phil Kessel's incredible playoffs continued Saturday.

With a chance to clinch their first-round series against the New York Rangers in Game 5, the Pittsburgh Penguins forward recorded his fifth point of the series with an assist on an early Carl Hagelin goal, and followed it up with an incredible snipe less than two minutes later.

While on the power play, Kessel was sprung into the offensive zone by captain Sidney Crosby before burying an incredible wrist shot over the right shoulder of Henrik Lundqvist to tie the game at 2-2.
