The Chicago Sun-Times' "3 stars" from Game 4 of the Blackhawks' first-round series against the Phoenix Coyotes:
1 - Mike Smith
The Coyotes goalie stopped 30 of 32 shots for his sixth win in seven games this season against the Hawks despite once again allowing the tying goal with less than 90 seconds left in regulation.
2 - Mikkel Boedker
The Coyotes forward scored the game-winner 2:15 into overtime. It was the second consecutive overtime game-winner after also ending Game 3 at the United Center with a goal 13:15 into the extra frame.
3 - Shane Doan
The Coyotes captain scored his first goal of the series after stripping defenseman Johnny Oduya in the Hawks' defensive zone. He was a plus-1 and won 11 of 20 faceoffs.
