Heiskanen scores in overtime to push the Stars past the Blackhawks, 4-3
DALLAS (AP) --- Defenseman Miro Heiskanen scored 22 seconds into overtime to
give the Dallas Stars a 4-3 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Sunday.
Second in the Western Conference, the Stars are 11-0-1 in their last 12.
Young Chicago star Connor Bedard forced the extra period by scoring with 1:20
left in regulation with the Blackhawks playing with an extra skater.
Mavrik Bourque had a goal and an assist for Dallas. Nathan Bastian and Justin
Hryckowian also scored, and Casey DeSmith made 12 saves.
Tyler Bertuzzi and rookie defenseman Sam Rinzel also scored for Chicago, and
Arvid Soderblom stopped 28 shots. The Blackhawks are 2-7-4 in their last 13.
The Stars turned a 2-1 deficit going into the third period into a 3-2 lead on
Bourque's goal 42 seconds in and Hryckowian's power-play goal at 9:40.
The Blackhawks took a 2-0 lead in the first period on a deflection by Bertuzzi
at 6:59 and Rinzel's blast from the slot fewer than two minutes later. Bastian
scored Dallas' first goal late in the period.
Soderblom made consecutive starts for the first time this season with No. 1
Blackhawks goalie Spencer Knight sidelined with an illness.
Blackhawks rookie forward Oliver Moore left midway through the first period
after three shifts with an undisclosed injury when sliding into the end boards
seconds after assisting on Rinzel's goal.
Dallas improved to 6-12-4 when trailing after two periods, while Chicago
dropped to 15-3-2 when leading after two.
