And just like that, John Klingberg marks another milestone on his way to becoming one the Dallas Stars’ all-time franchise greats.
After the Stars’ overtime victory against the Montreal Canadiens, The Dallas Morning News’ Matthew DeFranks devoted much of his coverage to the veteran blueliner, who was easily the hero of the hour:
The goal capped an excellent night for Klingberg, who tied the game with 4:46 left in the third period, before winning it with just 9.7 seconds left in overtime. He led all skaters with 29:06 of ice time and became the franchise leader in most game-winning goals by a defenseman by scoring his 21st winner.
