But it wasn’t enough for the Stars to walk away with a victory, as Sidney Crosby led Pittsburgh to a 5-3 win with a hat trick of his own. The Penguins scored off two Stars turnovers in their own zone in the last 10 minutes of the game, including one with 1:43 remaining by Blake Lizotte.

Pittsburgh's Sidney Crosby and Dallas' Evgenii Dadonov each scored three goals Saturday during the Penguins' 5-3 victory over the host Stars at the American Airlines Center, a pivotal loss for the home team in its fight for the Central Division title.
