The Stars created roughly 84 amazing scoring chances without result, went down 3-1 just for fun, and wristed a few pucks in from the blue line before Benn's OT winner. It is a strategy, technically.
They're doing this on purpose, right?
Dallas was a team possessed (and in possession of the puck) for the first half of the first, and hockey was tons of fun. The thing was, pucks weren't going in. The scoring impotence of this game reached its height of absurdity when Tyler Seguin actually shot a rebound off his own skate. The game eventually rewarded Dallas for its many high-quality chances though, because actually no it didn't because Ryan Miller will forever incur hexes upon his team when he plays the Stars, as you may remember.
