Is this the turning point for the Texas Stars this season? If it is — it could not have come at a more opportune moment on the schedule.
The Stars, on the heels of the holiday break, maintained their momentum from last night to crack open the game with three goals in the first period against Milwaukee Admirals netminder Matt Murray, a goaltender that seemingly had this team’s number one season ago.
The establishment of the early lead, paired with added insurance with a Cameron Hughes goal in the second, gave Texas enough cushion to walk away with its first sweep of the season.
