News: 12 hours agoPalat notched an assist, four hits, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 3-2 double-overtime win over the Hurricanes in Game 3.
Spin: Palat ended a four-game point drought with the helper. The 34-year-old winger is filling a top-six role on paper, though his 22:42 of ice time Friday was by far his highest in three playoff outings. He's added three shots on net, 11 hits, four blocked shots and a plus-2 rating this postseason. Even if Palat stays on the top line, he's there for his overall play rather than just his scoring.
