Pad save. And a beauty.Heck, let's go ahead and call it straight-up spectacular fashion. It was a borderline miracle if you want to know the truth.
Accoring to Bob "Sports" Sturm's Twitter Tweet Sunday morning: "Canucks have 183-3-12 record when leading after 2 periods since 2006."
Make that 183-3-13. The Stars rallied from a 2-0 hole after Mike Ribeiro tipped in Alex Goligoski's slap shot/pass with less than a minute left in the third quarter (Steve Ott with the gigantic face-off win in Vancouver's zone). Then Loui Eriksson capped it off with the overtime winner. 3-2.
The Stars have won four straight and are just three points out of the Pacific Division lead and the three-seed (Phoenix sits at 73 points and are 9-0-1 in last 10). The Stars are now 8-5-2 in February.
Incidentally, the recent winning and the surge up the ranks in the West might have some effect on how Joe Nieuwendyk looks at today's trade deadline. It ends at 2 p.m. in Dallas.
Honestly, there's not a ton of chatter about the Stars. Granted, Nieuwendyk is not looking to cut payroll. It's not a fire sale, but I'm sure he's looking to improve the team now and for the next three years. Steve Ott has probably been the most talked about trade chip. Clearly, the Stars look to be more in a buying mood than selling.
Sitting still might look just as good.
For the record, the Stars announced 18,000 in the American Airlines Center, which is great if the Stars aren't cooking the books. Maybe Dallas-Fort Worth is buying in. Winning does that.
