Wyatt Johnston's OT winner give Stars first win vs. Vegas

Wyatt Johnston scored at 16:23 of overtime to give the Dallas Stars a 3-2 victory over the Vegas Golden Knights in Game 3 of their Western Conference First Round series on Saturday night in Las Vegas -- the Stars' first win in the series.

Johnston roofed a sharp-angled wrist shot from the bottom of the right circle over the left shoulder of Vegas goaltender Logan Thompson for the game-winner and his second goal of the game.

Miro Heiskanen had a goal and an assist and Jason Robertson added two assists for Dallas, which still trails the best-of-seven series, 2-1. Jake Oettinger finished with 32 saves. Game 4 is Monday night in Las Vegas.

Brayden McNabb had a goal and an assist and Jack Eichel scored a short-handed goal for Vegas, which had a six-game winning streak against the Stars snapped. Thompson tied his career high with 43 saves, including four breakaways in the second period alone.

Dallas took a 1-0 lead in the first period when Johnson backhanded in a rebound from in front of the net for his first goal of the playoffs.

Heiskanen made it 2-0 early in the second period when he finished an odd-man rush with a wrist shot that caromed in off the left post.

Dallas dominated the first 30 minutes, outshooting the Golden Knights 30-10 and finishing the second period with a 21-3 edge in high-danger chances. But Thompson kept Vegas in the game, stopping Tyler Sequin twice in the second period on breakaways.

The Golden Knights then rallied to tie it later in the period with two goals in the span of 3:10.

McNabb got the first when he snapped a wrist shot from the top of the right circle past a screen and Oettinger's blocker side at 10:40 for his second goal of the playoffs. Eichel followed with a short-handed goal at 13:50, finishing a two-on-one rush with a wrist shot past Oettinger's blocker side.
