Wyatt Johnston scores in OT, Stars beat Golden Knights 3-2 to cut series deficit to 2-1

Associated Press  

LAS VEGAS — 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. “So I think it’s that desperation coming out and making sure we’re doing all those things that make us successful.” Miro Heiskanen also scored for the Stars, and Jake Oettinger made 32 saves. So, we win a game on Monday, we have home-ice advantage again.” Johnston opened the scoring midway through the first period when he backhanded a loose puck off a rebound through Thompson’s pads. After tempers began flared midway through the second with Vegas’ physical fourth line, and two roughing penalties resulted in a 4 on 4, McNabb skated to the high slot and fired a wrist shot past Oettinger to pull Dallas within one.
