Boston's 2021 first-round pick, Fabian Lysell, collected 4 goals and 11 assists for a total of 15 points in just six games of the Vancouver Giants' first-round matchup in the Western Hockey League Playoffs.
The Giants were major underdogs going into the series as the number eight-seed in the WHL's Western Conference with a 24-39-5 record, while the Silvertips were first in the conference with a record of 45-13-10. With the series win, the Giants became the first eighth-seed to defeat a number one-seed since the league expanded to a 16-team playoff format in 2002.
With Lysell's 15 points in the series, he attributed to 50% of his team's total goals. He currently sits second in WHL playoff scoring, just one point behind teammate Zack Ostapchuk.
