Dallas came away with one road win to start the series, setting itself up with home-ice advantage for Games 3 and 4. While the Stars won’t have top defenseman Miro Heiskanen for Sunday’s Game 3, Dallas has shown it can overcome multiple challenges in its postseason run.

The Jets let a close game slip away thanks in part to a kicked puck that went in and held up as the game-winning goal.

Dallas – Mikko Rantanen had a goal and two assists, including on the tiebreaking goal by Alexander Petrovic that was finally confirmed after a lengthy review as the Dallas Stars beat the Winnipeg Jets 5-2 on Sunday to take 2-1 lead in the second-round Western Conference series.
