It is high arena playoff season, that being the NBA and NHL (a.k.a. Stanley Cup) Playoffs. Up to four games a night for each league over the last couple of weeks has been a buffet of fan excitement. But the ultimate climax is Game 7. Especially a Game 7, and especially with a comeback win. And an individual single handedly doing it. The Dallas Stars Mikko Rantanen took a dire situation down 2-0 to score three goals in the last 13 minutes to send his team to the Second Round. It wasn't just scoring, the former Avalanche star was lighting up the scoreboard in Games 5, 6, and 7 with six assists to go with five goals as the Stars recovered from a 3-2 deficit to win the series. The Stars move on, and Rantanen is a worthy Sportsman of the Week!
