The Dallas Stars and St. Louis Blues didn't wait long to get on the scoreboard in Game 2 on Sunday.

It was the home team who opened the scoring as Stars captain Jamie Benn set up Alex Goligoski who roofed a one-timer past Brian Elliott to give Dallas an early 1-0 lead, just over three-and-a-half minutes in. Goligoski's third goal of the postseason ties him for the league lead among defensemen.

The Blues didn't wait long to answer, as just 35 seconds later, Patrik Berglund extended his personal point streak to three games by wiring a rolling puck past Kari Lehtonen on his team's first shot of the afternoon.
