With points in their last three games — including a regulation win against the Carolina Hurricane last Thursday — the Blackhawks entered Sunday’s game with the Stars hoping to keep the momentum going. Thankfully, they did just that with Alex Debrincat scoring twice to give the Hawks a 2-1 victory — their first overtime win of the season.
The Blackhawks had a good start to the period, outshooting the Stars 7-1 in the first 10 minutes. Debrincat knocked the puck into the net early, but it was immediately waved off for an obvious high-stick.
The Blackhawks best chance of the period was off a Brandon Hagel breakaway.
