Stars Rally to Beat Predators in Winter Classic at Cotton Bowl

Jerome Miron-USA TODAY Sports

DALLAS (AP) Alexander Radulov scored the tiebreaking goal on a one-timer with just under 15 minutes left, Andrej Sekera quickly added another goal and the Dallas Stars beat the Nashville Predators 4–2 in the NHL Winter Classic on Wednesday.

The Stars scored four goals in less than eight minutes, overcome a two-goal deficit they had after a game misconduct penalty early in the first period when Stars forward Corey Perry was ejected after he elbowed defenseman Ryan Ellis in the head.

The power-play goal by Radulov from the right circle was the second of three goals for the Stars in the third period before a crowd of 85,630 at Cotton Bowl Stadium in Dallas, the second-largest crowd to attend an NHL game.
