Texas played another tight, grinding game this evening against the Cleveland Monsters, coming out on the wrong side of the final score but with a lot of positives to count. The Stars earned a point in the shootout loss and got several parts of their game back on track in the process.
"It's good for our group to play in a game like this and grind out a game," said Coach Laxdal. "We did a good job to get a point and 3 of 4 on the weekend, especially coming off the three game losing streak."
After a week of practice and with the knowledge that Cleveland had one of the best records in the league over the past few weeks, Texas was in for a challenge.
