The Dallas Stars are still in the driver's seat in their first-round Stanley Cup Playoff series against the Minnesota Wild, but their comfort level is dropping.
Mikko Koivu's deflection of a Ryan Suter shot in overtime lifted the Wild past the Stars 5-4 Friday night to send the series back to Minnesota and pull to within a 3-2 deficit in the best-of-seven series.
"The last game is always the hardest," Stars defenseman Jason Demers told Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News.
Game 6 of the series begins at 2 p.m. Sunday on NBC.
