DALLAS — After the Dallas Stars failed to capitalize on a half dozen scoring chances in overtime, center Brad Richards got the only penalty shot for a 2-1 shootout win at American Airlines Center Friday.

Carolina goalie Cam Ward was more than solid in the overtime period but the Hurricanes couldn't get much going until an odd-man rush gave Hurricanes defenseman Joe Corvo a good look.

But he fired into the glove of a diving Dallas goalie Andrew Raycroft, in for the injured Kari Lehtonen.

Richards was the only player successful in penalty shots.
