Holding a slim one-goal lead over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday, Pittsburgh Penguins netminder Tristan Jarry took it into his own hands by scoring an empty-net goal to lift the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-2. Jarry's clincher is just the 17th goal credited to a goalie in NHL history. Three of those were scored by New Jersey Devils legend Martin Brodeur, while two others were scored by Philadelphia Flyers netminder Ron Hextal. Jarry is the fourth goalie to score in the last ten years and the 14th overall in the regular season. Linus Ullmark of Boston did it against Vancouver last season, the most recent. The chance for Jarry came late in the third period after the Lighting pulled Andrei Vasilevskiy for an extra attacker. Jarry was able to quickly corral it and fling it down ice toward the empty Lightning net when Tampa Bay dumped the puck into the zone.
