Impact The goals extended Konecny's point streak to six games and nine points (four goals, five assists). He opened the scoring late in the first period when he slammed in a diagonal pass at the post. He pushed the score to 2-0 early in the third when he carried the puck in on the left side, turned defender Jake Bean inside-out, cut to the net and slid the puck under Daniil Tarasov. Earlier Thursday, Konecny was named to play in the 2024 NHL All-Star Game. He's the team's goal (20) and point (35) leader (37 games). And he's done it the hard way - just three of his points have come with the man advantage. Even a little improvement on the league's 32nd power play and Konecny's scoring totals will take a big jump.
