The never-say-die Dallas Stars need two more victories to complete what some believed to be an impossible task just a couple of months ago: win the Stanley Cup.
Whether they can actually complete that feat against the Tampa Bay Lightning, however, remains to be seen.
Thanks to a double-overtime victory on Saturday to force Game 6 on Monday in Edmonton, the Stars are still alive in the Stanley Cup Final. However, they still trail 3-2 in the best-of-seven series against a Lightning team that is a perfect 6-0 in games following a loss in the playoffs.
Even after twice managing victories in the finals, the Stars are facing a huge uphill climb.
