""You'll never forget your first NHL game, let alone your first NHL point. He's gotta have that.""
""I told him he should keep it. 300 goals is just amazing... not a lot of people can do that.""
""I had the best time of my life. So much fun.""
Victor Eklund achieved his first NHL point by assisting on Bo Horvat's 300th career goal during the Islanders' season finale. The puck became a point of contention, with Horvat wanting Eklund to keep it for his milestone. Eklund, however, insisted Horvat should retain the puck due to the significance of reaching 300 goals. Eklund had a strong debut, logging over 15 minutes of ice time and contributing two shots and two hits. The game ended in a loss, but it highlighted a memorable moment for both players.
