Ondrej Palat Stays Hot In Finals Opener
2 years agoTampa Bay Lightning left wing Ondrej Palat maintained his hot scoring form in Game 1 of the 2022 Stanley Cup Final, scoring his ninth goal of the playoffs. He and Mikhail Sergachev combined for two goals inside 38 seconds in the second period to tie the game at three, but the defending champions ended up taking a 4-3 loss in overtime. Palat has scored in four of his last five appearances and has managed at least a point in nine of the last 10 games. He's riding shotgun on the top line to Nikita Kucherov and Steven Stamkos and it's helped the former seventh-round pick to rack up 17 points in 18 games this postseason.
