Knight, who turned 20 on Monday, became the first goaltender born in the aughts to play an NHL game. He became the first Panthers goaltender to record a win in their NHL debut, and he is also the youngest goalie to earn a victory for the team in franchise history

.@slknight30's looking like he's a bit more comfortable out there after getting his 1st #NHL period under his belt.
