Klingberg scores – after two years

Last time John Klingberg scored a goal in NHL hockey was in April 2023. Now – two years later – the Swedish defenseman has struck again when he scored Edmonton's first goal in the match against Philadelphia.

Recently, the 32-year-old made a comeback after being injured for 15 months. It was in Edmonton Oilers, which he switched to during the injury absence.

During the five initial matches in the Canadian club, he has not been credited with any points. But in Saturday's match against Philadelphia, he was credited with two – a goal and an assist.

Even Mattias Ekholm became a goal-scorer for Edmonton in the match that ended with a loss of 3–6.
