Afterwords: When You Lay an Egg Like That, the Stench Lingers for a While

No one wants to do a blow-by-blow of an embarrassment like that, so I’ll spare us all the trauma of re-living Thursday night in any sort of granular sense. The Stars got run out of their own building by a struggling, young team on the second night of a back-to-back in front of their backup goalie who hadn’t played in over a month. That’s pretty well unacceptable no matter how you slice it.

Jason Spezza and Mattias Janmark’s longstanding chemistry abandoned them tonight, and they both surely would have preferred playing in Toronto instead of Dallas with the level of misfortune they encountered (or produced).
