In the dying moments of a third-period power play during the Stars’ 4-1 loss to Vancouver, the puck found Esa Lindell abandoned in front of the Canucks net....
Vancouver entered the game four points back of the Stars, but Dallas was unable to dispose of the lingering playoff threat.
It was part of a flurry of shots on the power play, as Demko parried away the rest, an assortment of one-timers from the wings and chances at the net. The Stars couldn’t solve him. “We had enough [chances] to tie the game up at the end,” Stars forward Joe Pavelski said. “You score one goal and you expect more. Chances or not, you’ve got to finish. We had some good looks early, the second wasn’t out best. We pushed at the end, it was there. The result, we didn’t get.”
Pettersson — the No. 5 pick in 2017 — dazzled as the Stars played their 11th game without Miro Heiskanen — the No. 3 pick in 2017. Pettersson scored his first goal on a power-play one-timer, taking advantage of an unnecessary holding penalty by Jani Hakanpää and tying the score at 1. Peterson’s goal was his 11th of the season, and his backhand finished a nice feed from Jamie Benn. All of Peterson’s goals have come at even-strength for the Stars, and his 11 tallies at 5 on 5 rank fifth on the team.“We had too many chances to make that game 2-2 in the third period and we didn’t score,” Bowness said. “You hear me talk a lot about timely goals. That timely goal makes all the difference in the world in that game.”when he participated in morning skate on Saturday.
Heiskanen will skate Sunday — “It’s just a test to see his recovery, his heart rate and everything else that goes with it,” Bowness said — and travel with the team on its four-game trip through Anaheim , San Jose and Seattle.
