Dallas Stars center Joe Pavelski reaches for the puck next to Buffalo Sabres center Tyson Jost during first period of an NHL hockey game in Dallas.DALLAS — Joe Pavelski scored the go-ahead goal on a deflection with his back to the net and the playoff-bound Dallas Stars got their 50th win of the season, 3-2 over the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday night.
Pavelski's 27th goal of the season broke a 2-2 tie in the second period on a shift when he was battling against the boards behind the net to keep possession before skating back in front. After Chris Tanev shot the puck, the 39-year-old Pavelski put his stick on it and then turned to watch it slide just inside the post for the lead. It was his 1,067th career point, fifth-most for U.S.-born players.
Dallas had a goal overturned in the first period when a replay challenge showed that Mason Marchment's stick was just above the crossbar when he deflected a puck into the net.
