Wyatt Johnston is just 20 years old, but he can already add “season-saving hero” to the resume.
He scored 16:32 into overtime to cut the Vegas Golden Knights lead to 2-1 in the series and keep the Stars from sitting on the edge of elimination in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. He had 15 shot attempts by himself, leading the team by a healthy margin. He scored on two of those, including the opening goal in the first period.
At 20 years old, Wyatt Johnston is already the beating heart of the Dallas Stars.
