Stars Chase Kahkonen, Survive Sharks’ Push To Win 5-4

Kaapo Kahkonen probably never wants to see a Dallas Stars jersey lined up against him again.

The 25-year old rookie allowed four shots on goal to the Stars when playing for the Minnesota Wild on March 6th in 29:52 of game play before being pulled from net. Saturday night, suited up for the Sharks after getting traded at the deadline, the Stars didn’t even need that long before peppering him.

After Nick Bonino opened the scoring just 1:25 into the game, Vladislav Namestnikov scored his first goal after being acquired by the Stars at the trade deadline just 25 seconds later to tie the game 1-1 early.
