The Dallas Stars welcomed Connor McDavid and Co. to American Airlines Center tonight for a face-off with the Oilers, and it went... VERY well. The Stars came out hot and pretty much stayed hot through the full 60 minutes. They put together a convincing performance in all three zones to not only score a lot of goals (which is cool) but also to keep the greatest hockey player in the world off of the scoresheet for the first time this season.
First Period
The first period opened up relatively quickly but also in a normal way, with a back and forth transition game being the staple.
