The Dallas Stars entered Denver, Colorado on Thursday night in search of the second win of their 2019 preseason. It was the first of two scheduled meetings between the Stars and Colorado Avalanche on the preseason schedule and gave Dallas another look at a Central division opponent.
They succeeded in their mission, winning the game 2-1 and bumping their record to 2-1-0 before packing up and heading back to Texas. But they probably shouldn’t have won the game.
Dallas was outshot 47-23 in the game and only generated 13 shots on net in the final 40 minutes of the game.
