DALLAS — Jesperi Kotkaniemi scored both Carolina goals, the second coming 24 seconds after Dallas’ tying goal midway through the third period, as the Hurricanes beat the Stars 2-1 on Tuesday night. Kotkaniemi was credited with the second goal after the puck deflected off him near the crease from a shot by Sean Walker.

Dallas Stars youngster Mavrik Bourque, who turns 23 on Jan. 8, was the AHL's youngest-scoring champion in over a decade.

Bourque pounced on a loose puck and hit Jamie Benn in stride to set up Dallas lone score in regulation. It was the third straight game with a point for Bourque, who has three goals and seven assists over 36 outings. CBS Sports is a registered trademark of CBS Broadcasting Inc.
