Ben Kindel's First NHL Goal Resembled Another Penguins' Cup Legend

For those who are unaware, Pittsburgh Penguins’ 18-year-old forward Ben Kindel scored his first NHL goal Saturday against the New York Rangers

The goal came on a scorching long-range wrister from the right side on the rush, and Kindel was flying. In fact, he resembled another Penguins’ Stanley Cup legend who was also known for scoring goals and blowing past team defenses.

Kindel wears 81. That other guy – Phil Kessel – wore 81, too.
