Texas Rides Jurusik's 30-Saves to Beat Iowa 4-1

Des Moines, IA - A great man once said; "Any team can go out and win when they are playing their best, but teams with strong will, high character and a whole lot of trust in each other can do it when they aren't."

Ok, I just made that up but you get the gist.

The Texas Stars overcame a slow start to score twice on the power play, including Yauheni Aksiantsiuk's first career AHL goal, while netminder Matt Jurusik saved 30-of-31 and added an assist as the Stars beat the Iowa Wild (Minnesota Wild affiliate) 4-1 in front of 2,842 Thursday night at Wells Fargo Arena, sweeping the 2-game series.
