Rookies Oskar Bäck and Logan Stankoven had goals, in addition to veteran Tyler Seguin notching his 800th career point against the team that drafted him.

One game after pulling off their biggest win of the season, the Bruins failed to ride the momentum, falling flat in a 7-2 loss to the Stars Thursday night at American Airlines Center. The Bruins fell to 8-8-2 as they continued their maddening, season-long pattern of one-step-forward, two-steps-back hockey.

The Dallas Stars never trailed and used three goals in a 5:34 span late in the second period to blow past the visiting Boston Bruins 7-2 on Thursday, sweeping the teams' two-game season series.
