The Texas Stars had been a steady road winner in the early going of the season, notching victories across the Midwest on an early stint and another last night in Des Moines. This afternoon, the Wild fought back in a power-play-driven rematch with a 4-2 matinee victory over visiting Texas in front of 4,024.
The Stars fell behind 2-0 in the first 23 minutes of the contest with a pair of power play goals bracketing the first intermission. Jake Lucchini and Steven Fogarty's markers were both assisted by Sammy Walker and Nic Petan.
Texas came right back at them with a pair of their own power play goals.
