Khudobin, Stars aim to stand tall vs. Lightning
Listed at 5-foot-11, Dallas Stars goaltender Anton Khudobin is considered too short for today's NHL.
The Tampa Bay Lightning became the latest team to discover how large Khudobin can loom during Dallas' 4-1 victory to kick off the Stanley Cup Final in Edmonton.
The Lightning look to solve Khudobin and the Stars when the series resumes for Game 2 on Monday.
"He's a very good goalie. When he's on, he's on," Tampa Bay forward Tyler Johnson said. "We generated some pretty good chances and he made some really big saves. Did we do enough? No, because we lost the game. We've got to do more. We've got to do more than score one goal."
