Former Dallas Stars terrible giveaway could cost the Seattle Kraken a spot in the Conference Finals
The Seattle Kraken and the Dallas Stars are locked in a tight game 7 to decide who joins the Vegas Golden Knights in the Western Conference final, and a former Stars defender could've just cost the Kraken the Series.
With a hair over 4 minutes left in the second period, Seattle defender Jamie Olesiak gives the puck away in the defensive zone to Roope Hintz, who makes no mistake to give the Stars the 1-0 lead; take a look:

This game has a first-goal-wins feel, and if that turns out to be accurate, that's just a terrible play from Oleksiak altogether. The only thing to do now is wait and see.
As it stands early in the 3rd period, the Stars still hold the 1-0 lead. Olesiak better hope this isn't the only goal of the hockey game, or he's going to have a hard time living this one down.
