The Dallas Stars’ road trip ends today in the captain’s home province as they visit British Columbia to take on erstwhile Stars Antoine Roussel and Loui Eriksson, along with the rest of the Vancouver Canucks. The Stars have recorded three points out of three games already played on this road trip and were looking to finish strong this afternoon.
The Canucks are also having a bubble season, currently only four points behind the Stars. They’re coming off a loss at home to the Vegas Golden Knights on Thursday night.
First Period
The Stars had a slow start in the first period that, for the initial fifteen minutes or so, was mostly fine, because so did the Canucks.
