Kris Letang scored his second goal of the game with less than 30 seconds left in OT to lift to the Pittsburgh Penguins past the New York Islanders, 4-3, Saturday night

Kristopher Joseph Pierre Irwin Letang, the First of His Name, Protector of the Blue Line, Warden of the East (Division), Scorer of Two Goals. Long may he reign.

Yes, that’s right, Letang has scored two goals for the second time in his last four games. He scored a goal reminiscent of his 2016 Stanley Cup-winning goal in San Jose, and he scored a beautiful overtime winner with 26 seconds left in the contest.
