Roope Hintz and Denis Gurianov scored 24 seconds apart late in the third period, and the Dallas Stars rallied to beat Edmonton 5-3 on Tuesday night, handing their Oilers their first loss this season after scoring first.
Tyler Seguin added an empty-net goal at 19:41 for his 300th career score and Jason Robertson and Joe Pavelski added goals for the Stars, who won consecutive games for the first time since a four-game streak Feb. 27-March 6. Jake Oettinger made 22 saves.
"With this league, you can be in and out every game," Seguin said. "It’s 20 games left, trying to get into that dance." Kailer Yamamoto, Leon Draisaitl and Evander Kane scored for the Oilers, who are 21-1-0 when scoring first this season. The NHL record to begin a season is 22-0-0 by the 1944-45 Montreal Canadiens. Mikko Koskinen stopped 23 shots and is 11-2-2 in his last 15 starts.
"Not our finest hour in that last six minutes," Oilers coach Jay Woodcroft said, "but we have to learn from it and move on." Woodcroft attributed late individual errors to fatigue "but that’s no excuse.""Roope was coming at a hundred miles an hour, and good luck trying to stop him when he’s going like that," Bowness said.Kane converted a rebound at 6:14 of the third period following a Connor McDavid breakaway, tying the score 2-all.
