Earlier this season, Zach Yuen, a player for Kunlun Red Star of the KHL, recorded a point in a game which just so happened to be the first point ever recorded by a Chinese player in the KHL.

Then, Thursday, Yuen doubled down in the history department by becoming the first Chinese player to score a goal in the KHL. The 23-year-old defenceman accomplished the feat against Amur Khabarovsk and the goal actually turned out to be the game-winner.
