Canucks top Stars in overtime

Troy Stecher tied it with 1:40 left in the third period and Markus Granlund scored in overtime as the host Vancouver Canucks — who had lost 10 in a row against Dallas — defeated the Stars 5-4 on Sunday.

The Canucks were coming off a 1-5 trip and have two wins in their past 12 games.

Granlund scored 1:27 into overtime by finding a loose puck off a faceoff and snapping it past Lehtonen.

Eaves knocked in a rebound past Vancouver goalie Ryan Miller at 5:43, but Horvat tied it at 6:05 with a wrist shot off Lehtonen’s shoulder.

Adam Lowry and Marko Dano scored first-period goals for Winnipeg.

“Both teams are coming off tough travel (and) back-to-back games,” said Los Angeles head coach Darryl Sutter, whose club was playing its fourth game of a five-game trip.

Ottawa defenseman Marc Methot left after the first period with a lower-body injury and did not return.
