DALLAS -- Sidney Crosby had a hat trick, and the Pittsburgh Penguins ended the Dallas Stars’ seven-game winning streak with a 5-3 victory at American Airlines Center on Saturday. Evgenii Dadonov had a hat trick and Casey DeSmith made 35 saves for Dallas (50-22-4), who are second in the Central Division.

But it wasn’t enough for the Stars to walk away with a victory, as Sidney Crosby led Pittsburgh to a 5-3 win with a hat trick of his own. The Penguins scored off two Stars turnovers in their own zone in the last 10 minutes of the game, including one with 1:43 remaining by Blake Lizotte.

Sidney Crosby took part in another dueling hat tricks game with a Russian opponent 16 years after his memorable one in the playoffs against Alex Ovechkin. Crosby finished off his hat trick with an empty-netter to seal the Pittsburgh Penguins’ 5-3 victory at the Dallas Stars on Saturday after Evgenii Dadonov also scored three goals.
