The Columbus Blue Jackets had to battle in overtime wins at Vegas and Utah, and faced another tough road opponent tonight in the Dallas Stars. Unfortunately they didn’t have enough in the tank to overcome the injury bug and missed calls.
First Period
Dallas controlled play early and earned their first power play after Damon Severson hooked Mason Marchment to prevent a breakaway goal. On that power play, Cole Sillinger made a good defensive stop and sprung Zach Aston-Reese on a 2-on-1 breakaway. Unfortunately, Silly whiffed on the one-timer attempt.
Luckily, back at 5v5 he converted his next chance.
