Stars 6, Oilers 4

DALLAS (AP)—Mike Modano scored a tiebreaking power-play goal late in the third period to lead the Dallas Stars to a 6-4 victory over the Edmonton Oilers in an exhibition game Tuesday night.

Modano snapped a 4-all tie at 5:23 of the third period. Bill Guerin had two goals and two assists, and Jason Arnott added four assists for the Stars, who won for the second time in three preseason games.

Jarret Stoll scored twice for the Oilers (1-1-1).

Stars goaltender Marty Turco struggled in his first preseason game, allowing two goals through his pads and another on a shot that he stopped but failed to control.

Dallas’ Jussi Jokinen notched his third goal of the preseason 1:22 in, but Edmonton countered with goals by Stoll and Marc-Andre Bergeron to make it 2-1.

Guerin tied it at 2, but Stoll’s power-play goal gave Edmonton a 3-2 lead after one period.

The Stars got second period goals from Stu Barnes and Martin Skoula, while Todd Harvey countered for Edmonton and tied the game at 4.

Modano’s rebound put the Stars ahead for good, and Guerin added a power-play goal at 8:20 for the two-goal margin.

Edmonton right wing J.J. Hunter sustained a dislocated right shoulder in the first period and did not return.
