The Dallas Stars and the Detroit Red Wings both find themselves on the second day of an early season back-to-back. Turns out, the Red Wings were able to finish off their game against the Nashville Predators while the Stars disappeared after having an Esa Lindell power play goal overturned on a coach’s challenge.
Stars newcomers Rhett Gardner and Nicholas Caamano put together a solid game, Gardner especially drawing praise. Radek Faksa’s time centering the top line lasted long enough for Dallas to go down one early, and in the aftermath, Denis Gurianov put together one of his best games as a Star.
