WINNIPEG, Manitoba\u00a0\u2013 The Texas Stars, American Hockey League affiliate of the NHL\u2019s Dallas Stars, clawed back from a 4-0 deficit to earn a point in a 5-4 shootout loss to the Manitoba Moose on Friday night at Canada Life Centre.<\/p>\n
Manitoba struck first with just over a minute left in the first frame. Nikita Chibrikov forced a turnover and then found Brayden Yager for a breakaway, Yager\u2019s 10th goal of the season opened the scoring.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Stars were called for a roughing penalty 2:48 into the second period and Manitoba capitalized. Dylan Anhorn wristed a shot from the point that Parker Ford tipped to double the Moose lead. Phillip Di Giuseppe tacked on a third Manitoba goal three minutes later off a Stars turnover.\u00a0

Texas thought they responded two minutes later when Jack Becker tried to stuff a shot in from the goal line and Curtis McKenzie forced the rebound home, but the officials waived it off.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Stars were awarded their first power play with nine minutes remaining in the second period, but Mason Shaw flipped a long pass through the air to Walker Duehr, who scored a short-handed goal to make it 4-0.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Texas was back on the man-advantage with two minutes left in the middle frame. Kole Lind fed Dylan Hryckowian at the bottom of the left circle. The rookie then backhanded a pass to Artem Shlaine, and Shlaine\u2019s one-timer put the Stars on the board. Jack Anderson pulled off some last-second magic as he fired a shot from the left circle that went off of Thomas Milic\u2019s glove and in with one second left in the period.\u00a0<\/p>\n
McKenzie skated down the left wing on an odd-man rush with eight minutes gone in the third period, snapped a cross-ice pass to Justin Ertel, and Ertel\u2019s shot deflected off a Moose defenseman and Milic before going over the goal line.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Stars pulled Remi Poirier for an extra skater, and Shlaine tipped a Luke Krys wrist shot past Milic to tie the game with 5.6 seconds remaining.<\/p>\n
Neither team could capitalize on overtime power plays, and the Moose received goals from Nikita Chibrikov and Danny Zhilkin to win it in the shootout.<\/p>\n
Poirier made 25 saves in the loss, while Milic allowed four goals on 36 shots, and added two saves in the shootout for the win.\u00a0<\/p>\n
