Shore, Spezza score as Stars rally to beat Canadiens 3-1
DALLAS — Skating on the same line after a tactical change during the game, Devin Shore and Jason Spezza sparked the Dallas Stars to a 3-1 comeback win over the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday night.
A strong response to Montreal’s goal and the move that put Shore, Spezza and Tyler Seguin together made the difference for the Stars.
“When I didn’t see a lot of energy, I had to find it somewhere,” Dallas coach Ken Hitchcock said. “They gave us great energy.”
All three players had a goal. After Shore and Spezza scored 59 seconds apart late in the second period to give the Stars a 2-1 lead, Seguin sealed the victory by scoring into an empty net with 27 seconds to play.
