The Dallas Stars knocked off the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-1 in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final on Saturday.

Stars netminder Anton Khudobin continued his brilliant play between the pipes, turning aside 35 shots to secure the win.

Joel Hanley potted his first NHL goal to open the scoring for Dallas in the first period, while Jamie Oleksiak, Joel Kiviranta, and Jason Dickinson also found the net for the Stars.

Tampa Bay went 0-for-3 on the power play in the third period, and couldn't solve Khudobin despite outshooting Dallas 22-2 in the final frame.
