They then had to hold on to win 5-4 after the Jets matched the three goal burst later in the period.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/sports\/stars\/2025\/10\/11\/mikko-rantanen-returns-to-colorado-buries-winner-in-shootout-for-dallas-stars\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/sports\/stars\/2025\/10\/11\/mikko-rantanen-returns-to-colorado-buries-winner-in-shootout-for-dallas-stars\/\">The Colorado game was a very different story<\/a>. Jake Oettinger put on a cape with a 35-save performance as the Stars were outshot 39-22 in Denver. In the end, Mikko Rantanen was the hero with the shootout winner to beat his former team 5-4.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\">The Wild are 1-1.
