"Well, struggle is a nice way to put it…totally ineffective for a couple times," Bowness said. "When that happens, we're lucky, we're fortunate to be in a position to have two great offensive-playing D back there with Miro and John and sometimes that's all it takes is just flip-flop one guy, and it worked tonight."
Klingberg, who also assisted on Joel Kiviranta's power-play goal that tied the game in the third period, said he enjoyed playing with the second unit.
"I think that's something that we've been doing if it's not working really good," Klingberg said. "Just flip the units a little bit. With 10 guys playing power play, we're all on the same page. They can throw us with different groups sometimes, maybe get a spark and I think you saw that today and obviously we got two big ones at the end there."
Of course, when Gurianov is an option, that helps a lot.
"It's been amazing," Stars captain Jamie Benn said. "He's put in a lot of hard work, and he's got all the tools to be a great goal scorer and now you're seeing it."
