Dallas Stars come back to beat the Los Angeles Kings 3-2 in over-time.

The Stars were down 2-0 for most of the game, but tied the game 2-2 with only 20 seconds left in the third period to force over-time. Steve Ott would be the hero of the night for the Stars scoring the game winning goal.

Dallas Stars beat the St. Louis Blues 3-2

I covered the Stars / Blues NHL game last Friday night for the Associated Press. The Stars looked really disorganized early in the game, but came back to win 3-2.
