TAMPA, Fla. --The Stars sit five points ahead of the first non-playoff team in the Western Conference.
That's a pretty comfortable cushion in today's NHL, but it was forged with some pretty hard work.
Anton Khudobin stole two points Thursday. He stopped 45 shots on goal, helped the Stars get to overtime against the Tampa Bay Lightning, and then watched as Tyler Seguin won the game, 4-3, in the extra frame with his second goal in two games.
