The Texas Stars won their second and final preseason game, defeating the San Antonio Rampage 4-3. Phillippe Desrosiers and Tomas Sholl split the time evenly in net and both goalies looked solid. Big power forward Joel L’Esperance scored both the game tying and game winning goals in the third period.
“I think playing last year in the playoffs gave me some confidence coming into this preseason game,” said L’Esperance. “I’m just trying to build on that. I think last year helped for sure.”
Two penalties committed by the Stars in the first period led to one goal for each team.
