Jean-Gabriel Pageau | Playoff Performer of the Night

Only one person doubted that Jean-Gabriel Pageau could put up a four-goal performance to complete an Ottawa Senators comeback to win Game 2 Saturday - him.

Only one person doubted that Jean-Gabriel Pageau could put up a four-goal performance to complete an Ottawa Senators comeback to win Game 2 Saturday - him.

Pageau played the role of hometown hero to a 't' in the 6-5 victory. He netted the game-tying goal to complete a natural hat trick, and proceeded to score the game-winner in double-OT for the club that drafted him - the Ottawa Senators.

His game-tying goal came with just over a minute of play remaining in the third period, and secured the second postseason hat trick of Pageau's NHL career.

"Four goals, that's absolutely sick," Sens coach Guy Boucher said postgame. "It's not just four goals, it's the tying goal, it's the overtime one. It couldn't happen to a better person."

With the entire Canadian Tire Centre on the edges of their seats after one period of overtime, Pageau flew into the zone 2:54 into double-overtime with the crowd wondering if #44 could possibly cash in his fourth of the game.

Did he ever. With the game-winner, Pageau became the first player in franchise history to score four goals in a postseason game.

Ottawa leads the Eastern Conference series 2-0, which moves to Madison Square Garden May 2 for Game 3.
