Miro Heiskanen scored 22 seconds into overtime, after Mavrik Bourque recorded a goal and assist in the third period, as the surging Dallas Stars outlasted the visiting Chicago Blackhawks for a 4-3 victory Sunday.
In the opening seconds of the extra session, Heiskanen received a pass from Matt Duchene and chipped the puck past Chicago netminder Arvid Soderblom to help Dallas rebound after its club-record 10-game winning streak ended with Friday's 5-4 shootout loss to Colorado.
Chicago led 2-0 within the first nine minutes of game, but eventually trailed 3-2 in the waning minutes of regulation. But with 1:20 to go and Soderblom (28 saves) pulled for the extra skater, Blackhawks star Connor Bedard unleashed a wrister through traffic that glanced off Dallas' defenseman Tyler Myers and past netminder Casey DeSmith (14 saves) to tie the contest.
Dallas trailed 2-1 after two periods, but equalized just 42 seconds into the third. Bourque's shot banged off the post, but the puck ended up over the goal line after it was essentially pushed in by the Hawks as Soderblom and teammate Frank Nazar collided in the crease.
Then with 10:20 remaining in regulation, Bourque had a hand in giving the Stars their first lead. Amid some net-front pressure by Dallas on the power play, Bourque earned an assist when Justin Hryckowian got enough of his stick on the puck to beat Soderblom.
Chicago, mired in a 2-7-4 rut, opened the scoring at 6:59 into the contest. Well-positioned in front of the Dallas net, Tyler Bertuzzi successfully redirected Artyom Levshunov's shot from the right circle.
The Blackhawks made 2-0 less than two minutes later. After Oliver Moore forced a behind-the-net turnover, Teuvo Teravainen sent the puck into the slot for Sam Rinzel to send past DeSmith.
Dallas answered with 3:20 remaining in the opening frame. Lian Bichsel's drive from the point through traffic glanced in off Nathan Bastian.
Chicago managed just 10 total shots on goal through the first two periods. However, it maintained that one-goal advantage thanks to Soderblom, who was especially stout during the second.
