The Dallas Stars improved to (24-7-2) to become the first team in the league to reach 50 points on the season as they defeated the Montreal Canadiens 6-2. Dallas will travel to Minnesota to take on the Wild this Monday before coming home and facing the Chicago Blackhawks for their final game before the Christmas break.
Recap
First Period
Dallas got their offense going early as Jason Spezza scored 1:34 seconds in with a wrist shot that fooled Montreal’s net minder Mike Condon. Dallas had one power-play during the opening twenty minutes, but it amounted to nothing.
