His typical brilliance, tonight, replaced with blunder.
Patrik Laine scored an egregious - and truly costly - own goal Sunday night in Edmonton, firing a puck back into his own net after it rebounded into the slot off the pad of Connor Hellebuyck.
The repentant rookie's own goal was officially scored as a Mark Letestu game-winner.
Blake Wheeler immediately consoled Laine, likely saying something to the effect of his rookie season being a long one.
