The Texas Stars continued their home opener winning streak with a high event, up-tempo affair against the Chicago Wolves. Chicago is teeming with top-end talent, and it showed tonight as NHL-tested players Alex Tuch, Teemu Pulkkinen, and Shea Theodore all scored to remain competitive in the game when Texas wanted to pull away. It showed in the 6-5 final score.
“[Chicago has] about 6 lines over there,” Coach Laxdal said, pointing to the Wolves’ deep roster. “We managed the game very well to get it to 6-3 and then we got a little nervous with some puck play.
