Ribeiro sent Dallas into the third period with a 2-1 lead off an odd-man rush where he used Ryder as a screen and fired over Luongo's blocker.
Bachman had an adventurous beginning to his second start in 17 games.
He faced Zack Kassian on a penalty shot 24 seconds after the opening faceoff when the Canucks rookie was interfered with on a break-in by defender Mark Fistric.
Kassian lost control of the puck on his penalty shot, but Bachman had a Henrik Sedin chip toward the net go off the back of his leg when he misplayed a shoot-in seconds later.
Luongo also had some tense moments when Benn had close-in chances late in the opening period.
Benn slid a return pass from Steve Ott wide of an open goal then fanned again as he skated by another gaping net.
NOTES: The Stars lost Daley for most of the first period when Burrows fell on him during a goalmouth scrum. ... Vancouver outscored the Stars 20-5 in winning all four games between the clubs last season. ... Their four meetings this season are compressed into a 34-day period. ... The Canucks play a franchise-record 11 home games in March.
