No. 2 in the 30-second version

Taylor Hall was set to play his 1,000th NHL game Thursday in Helsinki against the Kraken.

Commissioner Gary Bettman noted that Hall will be the only player in NHL history to play a 1,000th game outside North America, and that Hall's first NHL game came on Oct. 7, 2010, the same date as Carolina's last trip to Finland. Coach Rod Brind'Amour said Hall has become a solid all-around player since arriving in Carolina, where he won the Stanley Cup last season.
