Jamie Benn, Tyler Seguin and Jason Spezza each had a goal and an assist, and Kari Lehtonen made 21 saves to lift the Dallas Stars past the Chicago Blackhawks 5-2 on Friday for the top spot in the Western Conference at American Airlines Center.

Teuvo Teravainen and Tomas Fleischmann scored for Chicago (41-22-6).
