There’s something about late goals in the NHL recently. Less than 24 hours after the New York Rangers scored a meaningless goal (unless you bet the goal total over/under) with a tenth of a second left, the Dallas Stars decided to see their late-game scoring efforts and even outdo them.
Forget one late goal. The Dallas Stars won thanks to two late goals. Both of which were scored in the final 15 seconds of regulation.
The Predators led the Stars 2-1 late in the third period.

There was plenty of chatter about blocking in the Pittsburgh Steelers‘ locker room this week leading up to their matchup against the rival Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday at Acrisure Stadium.
Running back Jaylen Warren, days after criticizing teammate George Pickens for failing to block on a potential touchdown run last week, backed up his words by flattening Bengals linebacker Germaine Pratt in the second quarter.
And yes, the play resulted in six points—all thanks to Warren’s gutsy block.
Watch the block from Jaylen Warren on the touchdown.
The Dallas Stars won their 20th game of the season in remarkable fashion on Saturday.
The Stars extended their winning streak to three straight games after scoring two goals over the final 15 seconds of the game.
Dallas, which trailed the Nashville Predators 2–0 heading into the third period, got on the board when Evgenii Dadonov scored at the 8:22 mark of the third period.
Following the club’s first goal of the contest, the quest was on for the game-tying goal.
Johnell Davis scored 35 points to lead the Owls in a thriller in the desert.
Fans of the HBO show Game of Thrones were in for a real treat during Saturday’s clash between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cincinnati Bengals. Pittsburgh rookie Joey Porter Jr., who was not shy about firing back at Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd‘s critical comments of the Steelers, carried that same mentality into his player introduction during the NBC broadcast.
With the Bengals receiving the ball first, that meant it was time for Porter and the rest of the Steelers defense to introduce themselves to viewers.

In the wake of one of the best football seasons in its history, New Mexico State is bidding its coach farewell.
Aggies coach Jerry Kill is stepping down, according to a Saturday afternoon report from Pete Thamel of ESPN. Kill, 62, was in his second season with the program.
In 2023, New Mexico State put together a highly successful first year in Conference USA. The Aggies went 10–5, highlighted by a stunning 31–10 victory at Auburn on Nov. 18; it was the program’s first 10-win season since 1960.
A week after New Mexico State’s bowl loss to Fresno State, head coach Jerry Kill is stepping down, sources told ESPN on Saturday.
The New York Mets probably have a higher tax bill than you this year.
Last season, the Mets went all-in on assembling a star-studded roster. New York’s roster boasted names like Justin Verlander, Max Scherzer, Francisco Lindor, and Pete Alonso. From top-to-bottom, this team had all the makings of a World-Series frontrunner.
The one downside to this roster was an incredibly high payroll. Thanks to the seemingly countless lucrative deals, the Mets had $374.7 million-worth of contracts for the 2023 season alone.
It was a year of frustration for Pete Alonso and the Mets.
New Mexico State was 17-11 in Kill’s two seasons with the team.
