Defenseman John Klingberg recorded an assist (0-1=1) on Thursday night in Game 1 of the Second Round against the St. Louis Blues. The blueliner has now inked the scoresheet in back-to-back postseason games (1-1=2) and four of his last five playoff contests (1-5=6). On Monday night, Klingberg potted the overtime goal (1-0=1), his second career postseason goal, to clinch the First Round series victory against Nashville. The blueliner became the third defenseman in franchise history to record a postseason overtime goal, joining Paul Cavallini (Game 3 of the 1994 Western Conference Quarterfinals vs. St. Louis, W, 5-4) and Mattias Norstrom (Game 3 of the 2008 Western Conference Semifinals vs. San Jose, W, 2-1). Klingberg's goal against the Predators was exactly 25 years to the day of Cavallini's goal, which occurred on April 22, 1994. He posted the first overtime playoff goal on home ice for the club since Brenden Morrow potted the series-clinching goal during the fourth overtime period in Game 6 of the 2008 Western Conference Semifinals vs. San Jose (W, 2-1 4OT). The native of Gothenburg, Sweden has registered seven points (1-6=7) and shares second among all NHL players in the postseason with a +6 plus/minus rating. Among League defensemen in the 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs, he ranks first in plus/minus rating (+6), shares fifth in assists (6) and points (7) and is tied for sixth in goals (1). He is one of 11 players, and one of only two defensemen (other: Washington's Brook Orpik) to record an overtime goal in the 2019 postseason. Klingberg has skated in 20 career Stanley Cup Playoff games and has recorded 11 points (2-9=11).
