As long as teams keep giving the Stars chances to win, they might as well take them.
The Stars picked up their second road win in a row, dispatching the Red Wings 5-4 in overtime on Friday night, boosted by a shaky performance from Detroit goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic. It is the first time this season that the Stars won consecutive games away from the American Airlines Center.
Roope Hintz scored the game-winning goal with 2:09 left in overtime, a power-play tally after Robby Fabbri was called for tripping Hintz. Jason Robertson, Ryan Suter, Joel Kiviranta and Esa Lindell also scored for the Stars, who received 24 saves from Braden Holtby.
