Heading into the third period last night, the Stars were 0-17-2 when trailing after two. And after a big final frame from the Blackhawks, that record became 0-18-2.
Mike Heika wrote that the team’s play was “a harsh reminder” of the wasted opportunities this season, and Lindy Ruff certainly wasn’t happy with the 5-3 loss.
"It's a terrible loss. Especially after we took the lead and then gave their best player a free look. And then we had a defenseman trapped on the go-ahead goal for them. It's not good hockey. It's stupid hockey.
