Garland extended the lead to 4-2 at 18:54. After Dallas forward Colin Blackwell<\/a> turned the puck over in the corner, Garland deked around a defender in the slot and tucked in a backhand at the left post.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt intermission we were just saying, \u2018Guys, I know it doesn\u2019t feel right, but we\u2019re doing all right. Hang in there,\u2019\u201d Vancouver coach Adam Foote said. \u201cThey\u2019re transitioning from a man-on-man offense to a little bit of a zone when it\u2019s low, and when it\u2019s passed high it\u2019s more of a man-on-man. They\u2019re learning a new system that Edmonton plays, Vegas, and we kind of play the same way. There was time where [Garland] exposed that and I think the guys kind of picked up some confidence seeing him hold onto pucks.\u201d<\/p>\n

Johnston cut the lead to 4-3 at 17:52 of the third period. With Dallas on the power play and DeSmith pulled for the extra attacker, he redirected a Seguin pass at the top of the crease for his fourth straight game with a goal.<\/p>\n

Hughes scored into an empty net on the power play at 19:24 for the 5-3 final.<\/p>\n

Bourque gave Dallas a 1-0 lead at 4:29 of the first period on a shot from the half-wall to the right of Demko that deflected off of Vancouver forward Elias Pettersson<\/a>\u2019s stick.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re four games in, we\u2019ve got to figure this out. I think we played pretty good in the first and the third, just not the second. Got to find a way to play 60 [minutes],\u201d Bourque said. \u201cStop the storm when it happens. We\u2019ll be better.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rantanen made it 2-0 at 19:22 from the top of the right face-off circle on the power play.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis has been brewing. If you want to take an objective view of our record, 3-1-0 is probably where it should stand. The problem we\u2019re getting into isn\u2019t so much structure, it\u2019s just managing the game. We need to manage leads,\u201d Dallas coach Glen Gulutzan said. \u201cWe came out, we started well. We looked good, we were in control. It\u2019s these leads where we tend to flatline a little bit, and that\u2019s going to be our challenge.\u201d<\/p>\n

NOTES: Hughes is the sixth defenseman in Vancouver franchise history to score at least 60 goals. \u2026 Hronek recorded his 199th and 200th career assists. \u2026 Johnston is the fifth player in Dallas history to score in each of the first four games of a season (Dino Ciccarelli, six games in 1986-87; Alexander Radulov, four games in 2018-19; Mike Modano, four games in 1993-94; and Tim Young, four games in 1976-77). \u2026 Harley and Rantanen each extended his point streak to four games. \u2026 With two assists, forward Jason Robertson<\/a> became the third-fastest player in Stars history (378 games) to reach 400 points (Bobby Smith, 332 games; Neal Broten, 367 games).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Garland extended the lead to 4-2 at 18:54.
