Kris Letang's 6 assists for the @penguins tonight came in a span of 19:33. No other player in NHL history has had 6 assists in a span of less than 30 minutes in a game (let alone 20). The shortest span prior to tonight was 30:17 by Wayne Gretzky on February 15, 1980.

The @Dodgers bullpen went 9.1 innings and allowed only one hit in tonight's game. Since 2000, the only other time a team's bullpen tossed that many innings while allowing 1 hit or fewer was the Dodgers on April 29, 2007, also at San Diego (10.2 IP).
