Heika: Antoine Roussel plays best game of season to lead a ferocious Stars comeback victory against Kings

LOS ANGELES -- Antoine Roussel holds a special place in the heart of Stars coach Lindy Ruff. So when the agitating winger drove hard to the net Saturday and appeared to cause a goal on a John Klingberg shot, Ruff was just a tad bit rankled to see officials wave off the tally for goaltender interference.

So Ruff made the rare decision to use his coach's challenge to see if the call could be overturned. Most times a coach will challenge because he felt his goalie was interfered with, not because he felt his forward did nothing wrong.
