Luckily for the Dallas Stars, those last two games don’t mean anything, and everyone starts fresh in a few days.
Of course, that means the 9 points they would’ve earned from their 4-2-1 record don’t count for anything either, but the Stars showed some positive potential that will hopefully carry over into the regular season.
Both teams had their offense on display tonight, with 11 goals between them. Gabriel Landeskog and Mikko Rantanen had 3-point nights for the Avalanche while Radek Faksa and Tyler Seguin each had a goal and an assist for the Stars.
