The sim is a funny thing isn't it? This game had no business even going to overtime as Nashville clearly controlled the game from the opening whistle outshooting the visitors from Dallas 31-18 through 3 periods. Once again MAF was brilliant keeping a totally disinterested Stars team from being blown out until they finally found their legs in overtime....did I mention the sim is funny? So after Nashville controlled the game during regulation and realistically should have won, Dallas took over in overtime outshooting Nashville 25-17 for the almost 2 full extra periods. That explains why Justin Abdelkader got his second of the playoffs for a Nashville win....errrm.....ummmm....nevermind!!! Did I mention the sim is funny???  Series back to Dallas tied at 2
