The NHL has made a scoring change on the Penguins' first goal in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Capitals. Chris Kunitz did tip Paul Martin's shot, and Kunitz now is credited with the goal rather than Martin.

Martin and Sidney Crosby, who won a faceoff to set the play in motion, get the assists.

That gives Kunitz four goals in the game, as he had a hat trick following that goal. He is the first Penguins player to get four goals in a game since Jaromir Jagr did it Oct. 14, 2007 against the New York Rangers.
