The Dallas Stars and Montreal Canadiens are set to clash again on Thursday night in Dallas, just days after an intense showdown in Montreal where both teams pushed each other to the limit.
The Stars edged out a 2-1 victory in a shootout against the Canadiens on Saturday, a hard-fought game that was close from the start. Jason Robertson scored the shootout winner while goalie Jake Oettinger made 30 saves and Jamie Benn scored in regulation.
Now, the Stars turn their attention to Thursday’s rematch. With both squads riding momentum (Montreal has won 10 of their last 13 games), expect another battle at the AAC.
