He was with Marchment and Domi, like he was when he went through a full practice Monday. Pavelski was on the ice for the game's opening shift, though he wasn't immediately inserted back on the top line.
The three goals extended Pavelski's record for U.S.-born players to 68 career playoff goals. Pavelski got the hat trick midway through the third period when he knocked in a rebound after captain Jamie Benn's shot off Philipp Grubauer. The Kraken then scored three goals in a 68-second span to take a 4-2 lead. Max Domi got the secondary assist.Ībout 10 minutes later, after Seattle had gotten even, Pavelski scored again from about the same distance with a redirect of Thomas Harley's shot. He scored on his first shot, on a pass from Mason Marchment.

He swatted a puck in the net out of mid-air.Īccording to ESPN Stats & Information, at 38 years and 295 days old, Pavelski became the oldest player with a four-goal game in playoff history. Pavelski's fourth goal of the night with 6½ minutes left in the third period tied the game at 4. His efforts weren't enough to save the Stars, however, as the Kraken escaped in overtime. Joe Pavelski scored four goals for the Stars after missing the final five games of the opening round while in concussion protocol.
Yanni Gourde scored 12:17 into overtime, and the Seattle Kraken - after defeating the Colorado Avalanche in Round 1 - kept up the momentum with a 5-4 victory over the Dallas Stars on Tuesday night in Game 1 of their second-round playoff series.
