DALLAS -- That's how you ring in the new year.
Alexander Radulov netted the go-ahead marker five minutes into the third period and the Stars scored four unanswered goals Wednesday to rally past the Predators, 4-2, in the 2020 NHL Winter Classic before a sellout audience of 85,630 at Cotton Bowl Stadium.

Blake Comeau, Mattias Janmark and Andrej Sekera also scored for Dallas, which trailed 2-0 after the first period. Matt Duchene and Dante Fabbro both scored for Nashville.
It was the first outdoor game for both teams, and the second-highest attended contest in league history.
