Last night, the Dallas Stars offense reminded everyone that they can still be an offensive juggernaut when they set their mind to it.
Going into the third period, the Stars were tied 1-1 in an airtight game against the Anaheim Ducks. They were on a two-game losing skid, were going dry on offense and special teams, and were quickly slipping in the standings. It had gotten to the point where head coach Lindy Ruff basically said that the upcoming homestand would define how the rest of the season went.
That homestand started off with Anaheim, and a win was necessary in more ways than one.
