Stars Secure 4-3 Victory Over Jets, Extend 11-Game Point Streak

Dallas Stars edged the Winnipeg Jets 4-3 on Tuesday night, pushing their point streak to an impressive 11 games.

Game Recap

The Stars began the contest with Jason Robertson netting the first goal, his 19th of the season and the team’s top scorer. Mikko Rantanen added three assists, while Esa Lindell, Roope Hintz, and Alexander Petrovic also found the back of the net, giving Dallas a 4-3 edge. Backup goalie Casey DeSmith stopped 30 shots and recorded his second win in a row, keeping the Stars’ defense solid.

In the early second period, Winnipeg fell behind 3-0, but Mark Scheifele sparked a rally, scoring twice in front of 13,675 fans at Canada Life Centre. Logan Stanley added a goal and Kyle Connor pulled two assists, giving the Jets a brief hope before the Stars’ power‑play goal at 4:46 of the third restored the two‑goal lead.

Stars’ Dominant Streak

Dallas is 9‑0‑2 over its last 11 games and has earned at least one point in 13 straight road contests (9‑0‑4), extending a franchise record. Rantanen’s point streak has now reached seven games, with 3 goals and 11 assists. The team’s power‑play unit has been prolific, leading the NHL with 30 goals before the game and adding two more for a 2‑for‑4 finish.

The Stars’ defense has been a key factor, as they have not allowed a power‑play goal in their last nine games. Backup goalie DeSmith, who has lost only once in regulation this season (7‑1‑3), contributed to that streak by stopping 30 shots.

Jets’ Lineup Shuffle

Winnipeg coach Scott Arniel made several adjustments in an effort to spark secondary scoring. He moved winger Gabriel Vilardi off the top line with Connor and Scheifele and inserted Alex Iafallo into that spot. Despite the changes, the Jets finished 2‑7‑1 in their last ten games and allowed a power‑play goal in six consecutive contests.

Eric Comrie made 15 saves for the Jets, but the team struggled to capitalize on opportunities, finishing 0‑for‑4 on the man advantage with 2:30 left in the third period.

Upcoming Games

The Stars head to Minnesota for their next outing on Thursday night, while the Jets will host Boston the same evening.
