With a slick redirection of a Claude Giroux pass midway through the second period Saturday, Sean Couturier hit the 20-goal mark for the first time in his seven-year NHL career.
It's a new career-high with every goal for Sean Couturier.

The goal was the latest in a career year that's already seen the Philadelphia Flyers forward surpass his previous high of 15 goals set during the 2014-15 campaign.
The 25-year-old wasn't done there, as he would score an empty-netter with 15 seconds remaining to bring his point total to 40, setting a new career high. After just 41 games played, Couturier is on pace for 42 goals and 80 points.
