New York Islanders defenseman Ryan Pulock had himself an evening Saturday.
The 23-year-old became the eighth rookie defenseman in NHL history to record five points in a single game, according to TSN's StatsCentre.
That's based on the rookie standards put in place in 1990-91, which require rookies to be 26 or under.
He also became the first Islanders rookie defenseman to ever score five points in a game, according to Shannon Hogan of MSG Networks.
Pulock tallied one goal and four assists in the Islanders' 7-3 destruction of the Chicago Blackhawks. He's the first rookie blue-liner to achieve the five-point feat since Alexandre Picard did so for the Columbus Blue Jackets in 2007.
Saturday's effort gives Pulock 14 points on the season in 34 games.
