He just keeps scoring.
Blazers leading scorer Logan Stankoven added his fourth hat trick of the postseason to power the Blazers to a 6-3 victory in Seattle Tuesday night.
The Dallas Stars prospect started the scoring, ended it with an empty netter, and added one in between, as his now 17 goals are far and away the best in the league.
Kamloops also got two goals from Daylan Kuefler, three points from captain Quinn Schmiemann, and two helpers from Luke Toporowski.
After jumping out to a quick 3-0 lead halfway through the first period, the T'birds were able to claw one back on a goal by top ranked 2022 draft prospect Kevin Korchinski.
Jared Davidson scored his eighth of the playoffs in the second to bring Seattle within one.
However, that was as close as the T'birds got, as a late Schmiemann goal in the second proved to be the game winner.
Kuefler added on his sixth halfway through the third, and while Matthew Rempe scored his fifth on a power play for Seattle, Stankoven iced it with an empty netter minutes later.
