Joe Pavelski Ties Playoff Goals Record Among Active Players
2 years agoDallas Stars forward Joe Pavelski netted a power-play goal in Saturday's 6-3 loss to Seattle, tying Alex Ovechkin for the most playoff goals among active players. The veteran hit his 72nd career postseason goal 5:37 into the second period to give the Stars a little hope, but Dallas had already given up four goals by then and couldn't secure the Conference Finals ticket. Considering the success he's had in the series, Pavelski likely won't mind having another crack at the Kraken. He set a new franchise record for a single playoff series with his eighth goal Saturday and has amassed nine points in total across six games.
