Playing on the second night of a back-to-back usually means travel is involved. For the Dallas Stars, that traveling happened earlier today before their game with the Nashville Predators. Thanks to Mother Nature, Dallas had to alter its plans for tonight’s game.
It happened to be a game in which the Predators honored Pekka Rinne by retiring his jersey prior to the game. That means the game should be dominated by the goalies, right? In theory yes.
