In the first round, the Dallas Stars were able to win three straight to knock out the Nashville Predators in Game 6 at home. This time around, the Stars weren’t able to do the same against the St. Louis Blues.
Despite having a trip to the Western Conference Final on the line, the Stars were somewhat flat all game long. Head coach Jim Montgomery too thinks the team was a bit lackluster:
“Didn’t play on our toes to start the game. Thought our second period was good, had some really good looks but we didn’t go tape to tape,” Montgomery said.
