Dallas 2 @ Toronto 1

Game comes down to the wire

This game lived up to the expectation, with of the higher point teams going at it. The game was fast paced as both teams got pently of chances. Tucker opened the scoring when Zubov went for the check and missed, leaving Tucker wide open for the one-timer. Dallas was able to get it back when Ribeiro deked out Raycroft for the PP goal.

Dallas was able to put pressure on Toronto throughout the third, but was just unable to get any quality scoring chances. But Toronto must have been using the rope-a-dope cause with about 2 minutes left in the game, Toronto put on the pressure with several chances. But it was the Stars who would provide the KO punch, when with 0.6 seconds left took a one-time from a pass off the boards and put it 5-hole to win the game in exciting fashion.

Stats:

19 shots 14
