In Tuesday’s win over the Colorado Avalanche, Joe Pavelski had his fourth 4+ point game. The Dallas Stars forward is having an incredible season, to say nothing of the historical accomplishments for someone his age:
Per NHL Stats, at 37 years, 219 days, Pavelski became the third Stars/North Stars player to record a 20-goal season at age 37 or older (age at time of his 20th goal), joining Minnesota’s Dean Prentice (39 years, 166 days in 1971-72 & 40 years, 125 days in 1972-73) and Mike Modano (37 years, 297 days in 2007-08).
