Tonight's game, in the form of "Jingle Bells":
Dashing through the snow,
On a Jamie Benn-led sleigh,
O'er the mountains they go,
Leading the NHL all day.
Pucks ring off the posts,
Making fans cry "oh no!",
Oh what fun it is to score and hit
Look a fan in a black speedo!
Niemi saves, Niemi saves, Niemi saves all day!
Oh what fun it is to ride in a Jamie Benn-led sleigh.
Niemi saves, Niemi saves, Niemi saves all day!
Oh what fun it is to see this team's record and play.

The Stars played a brisk first period, for being the team on the back end of a back-to-back set that traveled last night.
