DALLAS (AP) — Tyler Seguin provided the game-winning goal in a wild third period that opened with Dallas trailing and having to kill nearly three penalty minutes and ended with the Stars scoring four goals.Seguin’s tie-breaking goal came with 7:32 to play in a 5-4 victory over the Arizona Coyotes on Monday night.Roope Hintz [url=http://www.officialpenguinsproshop.com/authentic-adidas-hats]Pittsburgh Penguins Hats Authentic[/url] , John Klingberg, Radek Faksa and Mattias Janmark also scored for the Stars. Ben Bishop made 38 saves as Dallas extended its winning streak to a season-best five games.The Stars had allowed a total of four goals in the first four games of the streak.“It’s nice that we’re finding ways to win different types of games,” Dallas coach Jim Montgomery said. “Power play came through, penalty kill came through. A lot of positives to build on.”Oliver Ekman-Larsson, Kevin Connauton, Vinnie Hinostroza and Alex Galchenyuk scored for Arizona. Darcy Kuemper finished with 24 saves.Trailing 2-1 after two periods, Dallas scored three times in 71-second span of the third to take a 4-2 lead. The Coyotes rallied with two goals in a 61-second span to tie it at 4-4.Seguin scored his fifth game-winning goal of the season by taking a pass from Jamie Benn from behind the net and sending a wrist shot from the slot past Kuemper and inside the left post. It was Benn’s second assist of the game.“Early on in this one, it wasn’t pretty,” Benn said. “It was players stepping up and owning up to their poor play. It was good to see accountability.”The game broke open after the Stars’ Brett Ritchie drew a major penalty for boarding the Coyotes’ Alex Goligoski and a game misconduct late in the second period.Arizona couldn’t score on the lengthy power play, in part because two Coyotes went to the penalty box during that time in the third period.“The energy of that five-minutes propelled us,” Stars coach Jim Montgomery said. “We seemed to come at them in waves after that. Obviously, the tail end of that we got the power plays.”Klingberg and Faksa scored Dallas’ second and third power-play goals of the game for a 3-2 lead at 3:04. Janmark added the fourth goal with a shot from the slot at 3:39.“Obviously a big turning point in the hockey game,” Benn said. “It could have easily been 3-1 instead of 2-2 [url=http://www.officialpenguinsproshop.com/authentic-adidas-customized]Custom Pittsburgh Penguins Jerseys[/url] , 3-2, 4-2.”The Stars killed a penalty, but back at even strength allowed goals by Hinostroza at 6:49 and Galchenyuk at 7:50 that tied it. After Seguin’s goal, Dallas killed another penalty with Kuemper out of the net and Arizona skating 6-on-4.Goligoski did not return to the game after failing to pass the NHL’s concussion protocol. The defenseman was missed.“He’s an important guy for us,” Ekman-Larsson said. “Not having him in the third, it hurts us. It’s hard when you get scored on two times, three times, shift after shift.”Arizona took one-goal leads with Ekman-Larsson scoring in the first period and Connauton in the second.In between, Hintz scored a power-play goal at 3:36 of the second.The Coyotes had killed six of seven penalties in the previous four games, but allowed three power-play goals on four Dallas power plays. The Stars killed all five Arizona man advantages.NOTES: Coyotes D Jakob Chychrun (lower-body injury) missed his second straight game. He did not travel with the team. … Ekman-Larsson’s goal was his 109th for Arizona, setting a team career record. . Connauton’s goal was his first in 38 games, since April 3, 2018. . Hintz hadn’t scored in 20 NHL games [url=http://www.officialsharks.com]www.officialsharks.com[/url] , since his goal at Pittsburgh on Nov. 21. . Each starting goalie came in hot. Kuemper had provided points in nine straight games (6-0-3), allowing only 20 goals. Bishop had allowed only three goals and had won three in a row.UP NEXTCoyotes: Complete a six-game trip on Tuesday at Nashville.Stars: Play the first of five games in a row on the road, and their second in six days at Nashville on Thursday. On the eve of free agency, John Tavares is leaving the NHL guessing about his destination.With less than 12 hours until the market opens, the elite center had not chosen between six suitors, with the San Jose Sharks, hometown Toronto Maple Leafs and incumbent New York Islanders considered the most likely options. Returning to the Islanders looks less likely now after the midnight deadline passed for Tavares to get an eight-year contract from his current team.The Tavares sweepstakes dragging on into Sunday seems to favor San Jose and Toronto, either of which could sign the 27-year-old to a seven-year deal worth $70 million or more. He met this week with the Sharks, Maple Leafs, Islanders, Boston Bruins, Dallas Stars and Tampa Bay Lightning, and his decision could drastically affect the plans of those teams and others.”I think other teams have admitted [url=http://www.officialsharks.com/authentic-adidas-t-shirts]San Jose Sharks T-Shirts Authentic[/url] , we would have to make moves (to clear salary-cap space),” Bruins general manager Don Sweeny told reporters in Boston on Friday. ”Pretty confident we’d be able to do that.”As hockey waited for the Tavares watch to end, several teams made moves Saturday ahead of the frenzy.The Sharks agreed to a $64 million, eight-year extension with forward Logan Couture, according to a person familiar with the contract who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the deal hasn’t been announced. It can’t become official until after noon Sunday because it doesn’t begin until the 2019-20 season – the same as long-term deals the Los Angeles Kings have with Drew Doughty and Arizona Coyotes have with Oliver Ekman-Larsson and Niklas Hjalmarsson.Detroit got its own defenseman under contract for the next two seasons by agreeing to deal with Mike Green that pays him $5,375,000 annually. Signing Green could be just the start of the action for the Red Wings, who have been linked to unrestricted free agent goaltender Jonathan Bernier and winger Thomas Vanek.New Jersey also shored up its goaltending situation by re-signing Eddie Lack to a $650,000, one-year deal. The Devils also have Cory Schneider and Keith Kinkaid, who split time last season and in the playoffs.A person with direct knowledge of discussions said the Buffalo Sabres are expected to sign goalie Carter Hutton, who had been the St. Louis Blues’ backup to Jake Allen. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because agreements cannot be announced until the signing period begins.Hutton and others seem to already be ticketed for certain places, but many big-name players are still up for grabs.Maple Leafs winger James van Riemsdyk [url=http://www.officialsharks.com/authentic-adidas-hoodie]San Jose Sharks Hoodies Authentic[/url] , who tied Tavares with 36 goals last season, has been drawing significant interest and, at 29, could easily command a seven-year contract at a substantial raise over his previous $4.25 million salary. The Western Conference champion Vegas Golden Knights have cap space but might lose wingers David Perron and James Neal, who combined for 110 points last season.The Winnipeg Jets are doing their best to try to bring back center Paul Stastny after he was so instrumental in their playoff run. They cleared about $5.5 million in cap space by trading goaltender Steve Mason and Finnish forward Joel Armia to Montreal on Saturday but may still need more room to bring back the 32-year-old.The Canadiens are set to buy out Mason, putting him on unconditional waivers as the Minnesota Wild did with forward Tyler Ennis to clear cap space.Stastny fit in seamlessly after Winnipeg acquired him from St. Louis at the trade deadline but also might be better served waiting to see what Tavares does. Teams looking for a center who don’t land Tavares will look to Stastny and Toronto’s Tyler Bozak and could look into a trade for Buffalo’s Ryan O’Reilly, who is signed for the next five years and owed a $7.5 million bonus Sunday.—AP Sports Writer Josh Dubow in San Jose, California, contributed to this report.
