Corey Perry scores twice, Joe Pavelski sets record as Stars stay alive against Lightning

The Dallas Stars stayed alive in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final and made personal history in the process.

The Stars beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 3-2 Saturday in double overtime on Corey Perry's second goal of the game and now trail the best-of-seven series three games to two.

Center Joe Pavelski had tied the game in the third period with a power-play goal, giving him 61 postseason goals for his career. That moved him past Hockey Hall of Famer Joe Mullen for first overall among U.S.-born players.

The Stars, who recorded their ninth come-from-behind victory in the playoffs, scored first on a Perry goal but then had to rally after the Lightning scored twice.
