History and statistics show that winning Game One of a series increases a team’s chances to advance to the next round enormously. On Friday night, the Dallas Stars did just that.
With a 2-1 win over the St. Louis Blues in game one last night, the green and white took a huge one-game series lead. The Stars game away their 1-0 lead late in the game, but found a way to squeeze out a 2-1 victory.
Just like they did in the first round against the Minnesota Wild, the Dallas Stars made a statement by winning game one.
