Harley Strikes Again as Stars Stun Jets in Overtime Thriller
A familiar name delivers a familiar heartbreak for Winnipeg and this one ends in dramatic fashion in Dallas. Thomas Harley steps into open ice in overtime and with one smooth move he flips the game on its head, lifting the Stars past the Jets 4–3 and sealing another painful loss for Winnipeg beyond regulation.
This game had all the ingredients of a playoff-style battle. Tight checking early. Goaltenders locked in. Chances at both ends but nothing to show for it in the opening period. The Jets had power play looks. Dallas had momentum swings. But neither side blinked. It felt like a game waiting for one moment to break it open.
That moment came early in the second when Dallas finally cracked through, only for Winnipeg to respond with urgency and confidence. The Jets pushed back hard, finding their rhythm and turning speed into pressure. They took the lead and for stretches looked like the sharper, more composed team. But Dallas stayed patient. They absorbed the push, survived key moments and clawed their way back into it before the period ended.

The third period turned into a test of nerves. Dallas struck first with a highlight-reel goal that shifted the energy inside the building. Winnipeg could have folded there. Instead, they pulled their goalie, pressed forward and found a late equalizer that forced overtime and kept hope alive.
Overtime, though, belonged to Dallas. The Stars controlled possession and waited for the Jets to crack. After a missed Winnipeg chance, fatigue set in. That is when Matt Duchene created space and found Harley drifting in alone. Harley settled the puck and finished it with a calm backhand, ending the game instantly and sending the Stars’ bench spilling onto the ice.
For Winnipeg, this loss cuts deeper than just one point. It continues a troubling pattern in overtime games and raises questions about closing ability in tight moments. These are the games that matter later in the season. These are the points that define playoff races.
For Dallas, it is another reminder of why they are so dangerous. They stay composed. They trust their depth. And when the moment arrives, they have players who do not hesitate.
This was more than a regular-season win. It was a statement about execution under pressure and about who controls the biggest moments when games hang in the balance.
