EDGE Analysis

Pageau opened the scoring just 3:59 into the game, deftly re-directing a Thomas Chabot centering feed past Buffalo goalie Linus Ullmark. The tally made Pageau a 20-goal scorer for the first time in his NHL career and he needed only 48 games to do it. Pageau will be an unrestricted free agent this summer and figures to be a hot commodity at next month's trade deadline if Ottawa makes him available.
