In the weekend's other Game 7 classic, with the Stars down 2-0 in the third period, Rantanen scored two goals to tie the game, and then he assisted on Wyatt Johnston's game-winning goal with under four minutes left. To pour a little more salt in the wound, Rantanen sealed the win with an empty-net goal to complete his hat trick.

The game at the Canada Life Centre in Winnipeg, Manitoba, is the only one on the schedule Sunday night, May 4. It's a big one, with the winner advancing to the second round and the loser heading home for the summer.
