The umpteenth chapter in the I-35 rivalry continued with some new twists, as Texas emerged victorious on the road against San Antonio. Maxime Lagace joined the Stars and stopped 34 of 36 for the win.
Brett Ritchie, who had been so close to scoring several times last night in Cedar Park, opened the night's offensive efforts and Julius Honka pushed the lead to 2-0 on the power play. As the first period came to a close, the Stars had successfully pitched a clean sheet in the period with Maxime Lagace returning to the net to stop 14 shots against.
