DALLAS — Logan Couture came through again for the San Jose Sharks.

Couture’s power-play goal 1:20 into overtime was his fifth game-winner of the season, giving the Sharks a 4-3 victory over the Dallas Stars on Thursday night.

After winning a faceoff, the rookie center took a pass from Dan Boyle and fired a wrist shot from the high slot that got past screened goalie Kari Lehtonen for Couture’s 15th goal of the season.

“I kind of curled back, gave myself some momentum and just stepped into a wrister,” Couture said. “Those are the ones that feel real good coming off your stick.”

Sharks coach Todd McLellan has already come to expect big plays from Couture.

“Catalyst would be a very good word,” McLellan said. “He’s scored some very big goals. Our special teams were below par but he found a way to get the winner in overtime. He’s one of the top, if not the top, rookie in the league and when you have that type player on your team, you’re thankful.”

Lehtonen said he never saw Couture’s shot.

“They got some good traffic there, and when I came to the locker room, I went to see it (on replay) because I didn’t even know which side it went in,” Lehtonen said.

Torrey Mitchell and Devin Setoguchi scored during a 1:46 span in the second period for the Sharks. Setoguchi, activated off injured reserve Wednesday after missing nine games with an upper-body injury, also had a first-period goal.

Dallas’ Mike Ribeiro received a double-minor for high-sticking with 49.5 seconds left in regulation after his stick struck Setoguchi in the face, giving the Sharks a power play that extended into overtime.

“I got my stick up,” Ribeiro said. “It was a tough play.”

Brenden Morrow and Loui Eriksson scored power-play goals, and Tom Wandell scored at even strength for the Stars, 9-0-2 in their last 11 at home.

All three of this season’s meetings between the teams have gone beyond regulation, with Dallas winning the first two.

Joe Pavelski had two assists and Antero Niittymaki made 15 saves for the Sharks as the teams faced off for the second time in four days. Dallas took a 3-2 shootout victory at San Jose on Monday night, the last time the Stars played.
