Justin Faulk's out there making history.
The Carolina Hurricanes defenseman scored his 10th power-play goal of the season in Dallas on Tuesday, setting a new franchise record at his position.
Congrats to @JustinFaulk27 on setting the new #Canes record for most PPGs by a defenseman in a season with 10! #Redvolution #CARvsDAL

The goal, a wrist shot past Kari Lehtonen that needed a review, was scored in Faulk's 28th game of the season.
And Faulk didn't stop there, adding his 11th power-play goal later in the period.
The NHL record for power-play goals for a blue liner is 19, set by Sheldon Souray in 2006-07.
