Wyatt Johnston's Double-OT Goal Sends Stars Past Wild, Takes 2-1 Series Lead
The Dallas Stars are one win away from advancing. Wyatt Johnston buried a power-play goal with 7:50 left in double overtime to lift Dallas to a 4-3 victory over the Minnesota Wild in Game 3 of their playoff matchup, giving the Stars a 2-1 series lead heading back home.
This is exactly the kind of moment that playoff hockey demands. Johnston's clutch finish in the extra period shows Dallas has the depth and poise to win when it matters most. One team is heading to the next round soon. The other is staring down elimination if they can't force a Game 5.
