DALLAS (AP) — Wyatt Johnston had three assists before scoring the game-ending goal in a shootout as the Dallas Stars beat Edmonton 4-3 on Tuesday night.

It was the first meeting of the two NHL clubs since the Oilers eliminated the Stars in the Western Conference final for the second season.

Mikko Rantanen had two goals and an assist for the Stars.

Leon Draisaitl, Connor McDavid and Vasily Podkolzin scored for Edmonton, which led 2-0 only 7:07 in while playing a third game in four days.

Casey DeSmith had 23 saves before stopping two of three shots in the shootout. Jake Oettinger was on the bench, but didn't play for Dallas after the birth of his first child.

Stuart Skinner, who beat the Stars in the last two West finals, stopped 24 shots.
