Tonight’s game featured the Benn brothers reunited once more and the return of former Montreal Canadiens’ Alexander Radulov and Greg Pateryn to Bell Centre. No shortage of storylines were present for this matchup as the Dallas Stars took on the Montreal Canadiens to continue the second of a six in this road trip. The Stars badly needed a win in this one to continue atop the close wild-card race in the West Conference.
Dallas started the game not exactly as planned, as the Stars gave up three outnumbered rushes in just the first two minutes of play.
