Jamie Benn snapped a nine-game scoring drought with two goals, including the game-winner, as the Dallas Stars beat the Calgary Flames 4-2 on Thursday night to snap a five-game winless streak. When an offensive zone penalty by Alex Chiasson put the Stars on the power play early in the third period, it took less than a minute for Dallas to take advantage against the Flames' 29th-ranked penalty kill. A quick passing sequence down low was capped off neatly by Benn, who fired a feed from Tyler Seguin past Brian Elliott at 7:20 while alone in the slot to give his team a 3-2 lead.
