"It's a Power Play Goal!"

It took just 2 games, but Kyle Okposo has his first NHL goal! The place: The Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. The victim: Martin Brodeur, of all people, one of the greatest goalies in history.

The Islanders won in New Jersey on Friday night 3-1, with Kyle scoring the game winner with 2:35 remaining.

While it may not have changed much for this doomed campaign, if you're an Islanders fan you have to feel good. We'll let the following image say all you need to know about the future of this young man...

Congratulations, Kyle, on a great personal and professional moment.
