Stephen Johns skated up the right side and stuffed a wraparound attempt in the net 23 seconds into overtime for a 3-2 win and to complete a three-game sweep of the defending champion Texas Stars in the first-round of the Calder Cup Playoffs at the BMO Harris Bank Center on Wednesday night.
The sweep is Rockford's first playoff round victory since 2008. Rockford outscored the Stars 11 to 5, allowing no more than two goals during the three-game series.
Oh my Johns! @stjohns28 with an incredible individual effort to seal it in OT!
