Jaromir Jagr wasn't the only NHL player to register a milestone assist Thursday night.

With a third-period helper on Devin Setoguchi's goal against the Nashville Predators, Los Angeles Kings captain Anze Kopitar reached a cool 700 points for his career.

L.A. defeated the Predators 4-0, as Peter Budaj recorded a 28-save shutout for his third clean sheet of the season.

Kopitar's spent his entire career with the Kings after being drafted 11th overall in 2005. He has 246 goals and 454 assists in 792 regular-season games.
