A slashing penalty on Alex Kerfoot gave the Stars their first power-play of the night, but couldn’t get much action going on. This was the case for much of the first period as neither team could get going early on. A slow first period as both teams saw very few shots on goal and couldn’t seem to cement themselves into the game.
Luckily Tyler Seguin had other plans and was able to change all that. As Seguin hit the breakaway with a man closing in on his left but was able to make some real shifty moves in the offensive zone and had Jonathan Bernier falling all over the place.
