Well that escalated quickly.
Could this be similar to the Minnesota Wild game from last season that sparked their glorious run back into playoff contention? It reads kind of similar, in that the team had found themselves in a 3-0 goal before coming back. Unlike that game, though, the Stars didn’t walk away with two points. Still, they took one in a game where, with just under eight minutes left in regulation, they looked headed for another loss.
Also unlike last year, the Stars were without a lot of their key offensive contributors - no Alexander Radulov (injury), no Roope Hintz (injury), no Tyler Seguin (offseason surgery), no John Klingberg (he welcomed his baby girl in the wee hours of Sunday morning).
