There are currently two different players in the NHL named Sebastian Aho.
One of them is from Finland, an All-Star forward for the Carolina Hurricanes, and one of the best players in the league.
The other is a defenseman from Sweden that has played a limited role for the New York Islanders over parts of the past three seasons.
They are not related, but they have actually played against each other on rare occasions (one of them actually committed a penalty on the other a few years ago).
On Thursday they may have pulled their greatest collective accomplishment yet when they both scored goals early in their games at almost the exact same time.
