With the StanleyCup Playoffs well underway, several players are starting to find a groove that previously proved elusive. Dixononsports looks at players who have the power to really improve their team’s fortunes in Round 2 ⤵️
The Golden Knights’ leading scorer in the regular season was late arriving to the bubble due to an injury, did not skate in a qualifier contest and missed Game 1 versus the Blackhawks. Pacioretty was held off the scoresheet in his first three outings, but posted one-and-one in the Game 5 victory that clinched the series win over Chicago and notched the fifth goal in Vegas’s 5-0 dismantling of the Canucks in Game 1 of Round 2.
No. 67’s underlying numbers were good throughout the Chicago series, so maybe we’re witnessing the start of a serious breakout.The struggles of Dallas’s top line have been an issue all season. And while top-unit wingers Alexander Radulov and Jaime Benn both found the net versus the Calgary Flames, Seguin failed to register a five-on-five point in six outings.
Game 1 versus the Avalanche, however, could not have gone better for Seguin. Not only did he find the net for his first NHL bubble tally, he drew the first assist on a marker by Radulov.
