In the most technical of senses, nothing unexpected has happened yet in Texas' series with Milwaukee. The Stars are holding serve, but the feeling of these wins has not been normal. Tonight's sellout crowd got a treat from the home side.
The Stars took a commanding 2-0 series lead with a 4-1 win and earned the chance to close out the series on the road with a win in any of the next three games in Milwaukee.
"We knew we were starting at home and we knew we wanted to win these two games," said forward Matej Blümel, who had a goal and an assist tonight.
