Dallas Stars forward Wyatt Johnston led the way as the team rocked the Colorado Avalanche 6-2 on Monday night. He notched two goals and one assist, bringing his total in the series to five points (two goals, three assists). Johnston scored one of the fastest goals in Stanley Cup Playoffs history, finding the net just nine seconds into the game, and added the team's fourth goal during a power play in the second period. He now boasts three multi-goal performances in his postseason career, trailing only Sidney Crosby (4) and Pierre Turgeon (4) for the most by a player aged 21 or younger in NHL playoffs history. At just 21, Johnston has already made 43 playoff appearances, becoming a highly productive player for Dallas in the postseason.

Dallas Stars center Wyatt Johnston found the back of the net for the sixth-straight contest on Thursday evening during their victory over the Nashville Predators. Johnston would score in the third period on a wrist shot. During this impressive stretch, Johnston has not tallied a helper but has held a strong +4 rating and has scored one of these goals on the power play. Before his scoring streak kicked off, Johnston tallied 10 points (seven goals) over his last 10 games. Through 75 total games this season, Johnston has continued to show steady development at the NHL level. The former 23rd overall pick has already set a new career-best in points (68) and is just one goal away from matching his previous career-high (32), which he set last season. He will face the Penguins on Saturday afternoon.

Dallas Stars forward Wyatt Johnston had a remarkable night against the St. Louis Blues on Sunday, producing his third career hat trick in a 5-3 win. All three goals came in power-play situations for Johnston, who tied Steve Payne for the second-most hat tricks before age 22 in Stars/North Stars history. Dino Ciccarelli holds the top mark with four. Two of Johnstone's hat tricks have come this season as he has taken another big step forward. The 21-year-old is on track for a 75-point campaign, sitting on 21 goals and 34 assists with 60 games played. Johnston enters the new week with a six-game point streak, which includes six goals and four assists.

Dallas Stars forward Wyatt Johnston (undisclosed) will play against the Nashville Predators on Thursday. He was expected to get healthy in time for the season opener, and the Stars will have a chance to use him. The 21-year-old starts the campaign on the third line but is expected to see usage on the top power-play unit. Only 10 of Johnston's career-high 65 points (32 goals, 33 assists) came in power-play situations last season, and he definitely has room for improvement with the man advantage.
