The embattled pair of Jamie Benn and Tyler Seguin kept low profiles in combining for only one point against Detroit on Saturday night at American Airlines Center.
Even CEO Jim Lites, who unleashed a George Steinbrenner-esque rip of their season performance on Friday, could live with that. Everything else went according to plan for the Stars in a 5-1 win.
The Stars matched their goals total for the previous three games combined and had more than two goals for the first time in six games. The Stars had two goals from Alexander Radulov and two more from the increasingly effective line centered by Radek Faksa.
