Recap: Stars pull off dramatic comeback, beat Wings 5-4 in overtime

DETROIT -- With the odds stacked against them, the Stars on Friday simply found a way.
It was perhaps their most dramatic victory of the season, a thrilling 5-4 overtime victory over the Detroit Red Wings that featured a game-tying goal with 63 seconds left in regulation.

The Stars, who struggled so mightily on the road, have now pulled off back-to-back wins over Buffalo and Detroit.
Roope Hintz scored the overtime dagger for the Stars on the power play, but it was Jason Robertson who forced the extra session when he scored an enormous goal with the net empty at the other end of the ice.

A Stars power play that went 0-for-4 leading into overtime came through when it mattered most.

With the win, the Stars improved to 20-16-2 and are backing up their words of getting it together on the road.
It wasn't their best game, but neither was their performance in Buffalo. The Stars twice gave up leads shortly after taking them and fell behind 4-3 in the late stages of regulation to a Red Wings team that was 13-6-2 on home ice.

Ryan Suter, Joel Kiviranta and Esa Lindell added goals for the Stars, while Braden Holtby earned his second victory in as many nights with a 24-save performance.

The Stars will return to action Monday in Philadelphia on another set of back to backs.
