Hat Trick From Joe Pavelski Helps Dallas Tie Up Series
4 years agoDallas Stars forward Joe Pavelski scored three goals in Game 4, leading the Stars' offensive attack with eight shots as well. Held off of the scoresheet for the first three games of the series, Pavelski exploded for his first three-goal game of the season. Pavelski started the game flanked by Mattias Janmark and Denis Gurianov on his wings, but neither factored in on any of his goals. Instead, Tyler Seguin assisted on two of Pavelski's three goals and played just over eight minutes with Pavelski. Despite Dallas loading up their top line with Seguin, Alexander Radulov, and Jamie Benn, Pavelski is still being given opportunities to play with Dallas' top offensive weapons. Most of that is coming on the top power-play unit though, tying his fantasy value directly to Dallas' power-play opportunities.
