After tonight's 4-2 win at home, the Texas Stars are the best team in the division. While the standings might not show it, they've got the best points percentage in the group and three games in hand on first place.
"It was a solid team effort from start to finish," said Coach Laxdal, who pushed off any thoughts of the points percentage lead, looking ahead. "We've got a long ways to go here, but our guys are battling."
Texas had a chance to get knocked out of the contest mentally early as a 1-0 lead turned into a 2-1 deficit within 60 seconds of game clock.
