Cory Conacher scored the game-winning goal in overtime for the Tampa Bay Lightning, but Anthony Cirelli stole the show in his NHL debut. With 41 seconds left in overtime, Conacher broke away from Dallas' Jamie Benn and took a low shot that bounced off goalie Ben Bishop and went in to beat the Stars 5-4. Cirelli had a goal and an assist in the three-goal second period of his NHL debut. The Lightning recalled the 20-year-old Cirelli from Syracuse of the AHL earlier Thursday as an emergency replacement for NHL scoring leader Nikita Kucherov. Cirelli was very excited. It was the Lightning's fourth game in six nights that went past 60 minutes. Tampa Bay was 3-0-1 in those games to increase their league-leading total to 92 points.
