It was both everything you could ever want and everything you fear in a hockey game. It featured two teams digging in, a two-period stalemate, a late lead followed by an equalizer, and an extra period that involved all sorts of emotions. And yes, it also showcased a Dallas Stars win.
If you didn’t get a chance to catch the Stars’ victory over the Minnesota Wild in St. Paul on Saturday night, you likely missed out on a lot. You missed Dallas getting out to yet another slow start but rallying and taking control of the game midway through following Roman Polak‘s energetic bout.
