Four for No. 44.
After his hat-trick marker forced extra time in Game 2, Jean-Gabriel Pageau potted his fourth goal of the contest in double overtime to give the Ottawa Senators a 2-0 series lead over the New York Rangers.
Pageau is the second player to score four goals in a playoff game, including the OT winner, joining Joffrey Lupul, who accomplished the feat in 2006, according to NHL Public Relations.
As expected, Pageau's enthralling performance set Twitter afire:
The Sens of Destiny. Four goals for No. 44. Unreal.
