The Dallas Stars took control of their Western Conference playoff series against the Winnipeg Jets with a 5-2 victory, fueled by Mikko Rantanen's impressive performance that included a goal and two assists. His contributions helped secure a pivotal tiebreaking goal after a lengthy review confirmed it wasn't a kick-in. Coach Pete DeBoer expressed satisfaction with the officials' thoroughness, while Jets coach Scott Arniel was left frustrated by the ruling. Rantanen's ninth goal in six games shows his dominance, while Connor Hellebuyck struggled in goal for Winnipeg, continuing a tough postseason on the road.
