Before tonight’s game, Dallas Stars defenseman John Klingberg spoke to the media for the first time since he and his fiancee welcomed daughter Elsa to the world early Sunday morning. He said that there really hadn’t been much in the way of sleep in the past 48 hours.
You never would have known it based on his performance tonight.
Klingberg scored one of the Stars’ six goals in a statement-making win over the Chicago Blackhawks, the team they are in a battle with for the fourth playoff spot in the Central Division this year.
