00:00Hornquist into the cane zone. Hornquist down the wall, shoots it, he scores!

00:05Patrick Hornquist with a sneaky shot, it might have been tipped in by Scott Wilson in front.

00:10But the Penguins jump out to a 1-0 lead and Hornquist just got the puck to the net.

00:15And I believe Wilson tipped it past Camp Ward.

00:17It's tough to tell, it definitely changed directions.

00:20Wilson there with the tops to the bench first.

00:22As that puck was shot from Hornquist off the wall, Wilson went across the front of the net.

00:27It either hit him or the defenseman.

00:30Take a look. There's the pressure by Cullen.

00:32The shot to the net.

00:34And there's the redirect by Wilson with the stick out there right off his blade.

00:39You can see that he stopped, put the blade out, and as the shot comes in,

00:43it appears to me that he got his blade on this to redirect it high and over the blocker of Camp Ward.

00:50Beautiful stuff there, and Wilson was looking for that.

00:53And he needed it too, Bob. It's his first goal in 20 games.

00:57The Penguins draw first blood here in Carolina.

01:00Against the Canes, and they're a team that's struggling a bit.

01:03And so when you plant that seed early, as the Penguins have, that just makes it that much tougher for them.

01:09Shot by Derek Ryan was blocked, and the Penguins clear all the way down.

01:13And it will be icing as the Canes win the race to the dot.

01:17So Scott Wilson scores his sixth of the season.

01:20And Patrick Hornquist, who was a demon here the last time the Penguins were in town,

01:24when they beat them 7-1, gets the assist.

01:26Well, you get the pressure in the forecheck by Cullen.

01:29The turnover by the defender.

01:31And Hornquist reads that.

01:32He gets up the wall very quickly, and in one motion risks that to the net.

01:36Oh, yeah, there he goes.

01:37Yes, he went right off by blade here.

01:38He's explaining it to Hornquist right now as Scott Wilson.
