Texas got everything it needed in an action-packed first period, but that didn’t mean there weren’t a few tense moments late. The Stars scored three in the first ten minutes of the game, shelling Tom McCollum and earning a 4-2 final at H-E-B Center this evening. It was a big night for rookie Brad McClure, who scored a pair of goals, including the game-winner on the power play.
The Stars opened the scoring on the very first shift. Captain Justin Dowling dished to Michael Mersch on the left wing side, where he polished off the play behind McCollum just 35 seconds in.
