Texas Stars Week One: Let the L’Esperance Begin
The Texas Stars have started this season with one win and one overtime loss. Three points in the standings puts them third in the AHL’s Central Division, just behind the Chicago Wolves and Iowa Wild. The Stars have gotten there through a variety of means, such as an excellent penalty kill (they killed 10 of 12 penalties this weekend and scored a shorthanded goal). The Stars also have a good defensive system that works offensively, they have great goaltending out of Landon Bow and (to a lesser degree) Colton Point, and their forwards are moving the puck well.
