Oilers drained
5-4
Guerin picks up his sixth winner of the season, as
he scored his second goal of the game against the
Oilers, and his second came just 55 seconds into overtime
as the Stars came right back from a three goal lead
to defeat the Edmonton Oilers 5-4 Sunday.
Dallas has now extended their home unbeaten streak
to 11 games by climbing back from a 4-1 deficit that
they went into late in the second.
Bill Guerin put the Stars home unbeaten streak
against Edmonton to 16 games when he scored his
27th goal of the season thanks to a nifty pass from
the right circle by Turgeon.
Stars have the longest current home-unbeaten streak
in the NHL
Edmonton scored twice in the second by Raffi Torres,
Fernando Pisani and Ryan Smyth to edge its three-goal
lead.
Morrow had a power-play goal in the second, Philippe
Boucher also scored with 18:34 left in regulation.
The Stars stormed back on the first power play
2:11 when Guerin scored his first goal of the game
when he picked up a rebound and popped it over
goaltender Tommy Salo.
The Oilers tied it at the 12:17 mark in the first
period, when Steve Staois took a shot and went past
Marty Turco.
Edmonton then gained a 2-1 lead over Dallas when
Pisani's short-handed shot went past Turco.
An Edmonton Oilers player dumped the puck in the
Stars zone, naturally Turco came out to play the
puck, but did not get full control of it. Pisani
scored his scored his 10th of the season at 4:29.
Oiler's Smyth got a goal at 14:42 in the second
period made it a 4-1 lead for Edmonton.
Also Stars left wing Shayne Corson made his Stars
game, playing. He played on the the fourth line.
Stars now sit back and take a few days off and
wait for the Columbus Blue Jackets.
The Jackets just came off a great win over second
seed in the west Colorado Avalanche. David Vyborny
scored and had four assists, including the game
winning goal on Jaroslav Spaceks one-time shot at
the 3:24 mark in overtime, and led the Jackets to
a 5-2 victory over the Saturday night.
