Winnipeg Jets met Dallas Stars Winger Mikko Rantanen seven times in the normal season, but the post -season version was a different story.
In the last two games, Rantanen will try to continue the last score increase in Game 2 in Winnipeg on Friday night after taking the stars to victory with hat tricks.
Rantanen scored three goals in the third period of the 4-2 wins against Colorado avalanche in the 7th match of the first round series on Saturday. Later on Wednesday, the second round of the second round of the jets in the second round of a 3-2 victory in the second period scored three goals.
A hat trick in a row in a row and the third NHL player in the history of the league.
Rantanen is also the first player with multiple goals periods during the same season in NHL history.
“Linemates, teammates help me very much on ice.” He said. “We have such a deep sequence, so it doesn’t matter who you play with.”
Rantanen started with avalanche this season, and before the exchange of Carolina Hurricanes on January 24th, he was a target and assisted against Winnipeg.
He played Jets once with Carolina uniform, defeated 3-0 on February 4, and then traded to Dallas on March 7, where he remained in the two normal season match against Winnipeg.
Before the explosion of eight goals and six -quarters of the last quarter, he made a warm start as an assists in the first four games against Colorado.
Rantanen took into account the last 12 goals of Dallas, the longest series of Stanley Cup Playoff history.

However, they were not a dominant team in the game 1.
Jets Coach Scott Arniel, “We know that we give up the advantage of ice from the house.” He said. “And it wasn’t a game they rolled over for three terms. This was a game we didn’t do the best.”
Winnipeg goalkeeper Connor Hellebuyck allowed three goals for the second match on Wednesday. This is the average average for the league leader 2.01 goals in the normal season, but 19 goals in 85 shots. Much better than the four -game stretch in the Louis series.
Jets, St. After missing the last two matches of the Louis series with an unexplained injury, he welcomed Mark Scheifele for Game 1. Scheifele returned to Jets’s second goal.
Arniel needs the rest of the team to show more helplessness than Arniel’s “in the middle of December” than Wednesday.
“Obviously, we know we’re starting to get out of the game of St. Louis, but my friend, these playoffs, Ar Arniel said. “As a group, there is a way we should play and we played this way (in the game 1).
