Benn using Sochi experience for Stars' wild card race

With the Dallas Stars and Phoenix Coyotes potentially competing for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference, ESPN.com takes a look at the race through the eyes of Stars captain Jamie Benn and Coyotes captain Shane Doan.

Benn discusses how the pressure-packed experience of playing for Team Canada at the Sochi Olympics can help at this time of year.

"You know, I learned a lot over there," Benn said. "We had such a great group of leaders and guys on that team. It’s definitely a different feeling playing those winner-take-all, one-game playoffs. It’s an experience I can bring back in terms of playing in those high-pressure situations in the games that mean the most. It’s going to feel the same this week; you definitely have to win or else you feel like you haven’t done anything."
