Dallas Stars get first win against Vegas Golden Knights in OT; Series now 2-1

Wyatt Johnston scored his second goal of the game in overtime to give the Dallas Stars a 3-2 victory over Vegas on Saturday night, cutting the defending champion Golden Knights' series lead to 2-1. Johnston, who had a team-high eight shots, dragged the puck down the left side to the goal line, drawing goalie Logan Thompson into a low position, and beating him with a high shot 16:23 into the extra period. “What a player,” Dallas coach Peter DeBoer said about the 20-year-old forward. Johnston's shots on goal tied a career high, as he was arguably Dallas' best player.
