Landon Bow stopped 39 of 41 shots across 65 minutes of work, but the Stars fell in the shootout in Grand Rapids 3-2.
The Stars opened the scoring late in the first period with Roope Hintz's 19th of the season. Grand Rapids tied it up in the second, a period where they outshot Texas 12-4. The always productive Ben Street pushed the Griffins ahead early in the third period on a one-timer from the left wing circle. Not to be kept down for long, Texas tied it on a tip by Sam Laberge at 5:31.
Texas took a bench minor for too many men late in the overtime frame but got out unscathed to the shootout.
