Dallas beat Carolina, 3-0, Saturday night as Kari Lehtonen made 25 saves, and the Stars pulled away late with two empty-net goals. Dallas won the other meeting this season 4-3 in overtime on Feb. 18, and the Stars have won the last three meetings overall. Tampa Bay snapped a four-game winning streak in a 2-1 overtime loss to Montreal last night when Alexander Radulov scored the game-winner for the Canadiens. Lehtonen has won four of his last six starts and his goals-against average is 2.75 on the season. Lightning goalie Peter Budaj has lost three of five starts since coming over from the Los Angeles Kings, and allowed three goals in a 6-3 win on March 23. The Lightning has lost seven of its last nine after an overtime game the previous day, and Dallas has won four straight against losing teams. Play the Stars.
