There's a goal Nick Bjugstad won't soon forget.
The Florida Panthers forward scored his first of the season in Tuesday's game against the Buffalo Sabres, but the goal was more notable for who drew an assist on the play, namely Jaromir Jagr.
The point was Jagr's 1,887 in his illustrious career, tying him with Mark Messier for second on the NHL's all-time list.
It should be noted Bjugstad was born on July 17, 1992, at which point Jagr had already amassed 126 points.
