Schultz beneficiary of Carlo own goal

Everything is turning up spades for Justin Schultz.

The Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman is among the league leaders in points by defensemen this season and he can thank Boston Bruins rookie Brandon Carlo for his latest goal.

The Bruins blue-liner accidentally redirected Schultz's cross-ice feed into his own net on Thursday night, giving his opponent his eighth goal and 33rd point of the season.

Schultz would pick up another assist on Phil Kessel's goal later in the first period, putting him in sole possession of fourth in defensemen scoring.
