When you're the older brother to your team's younger brother captain, it can be hard to step out of their shadow. Jordie Benn and Jamie Benn both play for the Dallas Stars and while Jamie is the more recognizable player, Jordie got in on the action Tuesday with a beautiful stretch pass to his younger brother.

On a penalty kill, Jordie Benn calmly gathered the puck before sending a floating stretch pass up and over the Senators defenders. The puck barely stays onside for the play to work, but the older Benn hit his brother in stride as the captain Jamie Benn finished the shorthanded breakaway play to bring the Stars within three goals.
Here’s one more angle on the pass and goal, which starts at the Dallas face-off dot and travels all the way to the opposing blue line.
