The Dallas Stars entered second intermission to the sound of boos during their game against the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday night. The boos didn’t arise from all of the 18,045 fans in attendance, but there were enough to get the point across: the Stars are in a really bad spot.
After 40 minutes of play in the third contest of a six-game homestand, Dallas found themselves in a 2-0 hole against the Los Angeles Kings. The Kings entered the game in last place in the NHL standings, boasted the worst scoring offense in the league, and owned bottom-five units in both the power play and penalty kill units.
