I happened to be wandering through the crowd at the American Airlines Center on Wednesday night as the Dallas Stars battled it out with the New Jersey Devils. I have a part-time job with the team’s production department and my assignment for the night was to wander through the crowd and record clips of fans as well as on-ice action.
As I sat up near the glass next to the Stars’ bench during the second period trying to get some good shots, I began listening to the chatter of the crowd. At one point, Stars defenseman Miro Heiskanen made a spiffy move with the puck at the blue line, shook his defender, and skated in for an open shot.
