Good teams find a way to win the games that they are not playing their best. Great players find ways to put their team on their back when the night seems to be tilting away from them.
Tonight was that night for Mavrik Bourque and the Texas Stars.
In a dominant performance, Bourque scored all four of Texas' goals en route to a 4-3 overtime victory against the visiting Grand Rapids Griffins in front of 4,665 fans in Cedar Park.
"It didn't really go the way I wanted to the last road trip," said Bourque postgame.
