SAN JOSE -– Dallas still owns the NHL’s top overall offense, but it’s recently hit a rough patch.
In their last four games, the Stars (29-12-4, 62 points) have scored two or fewer goals, including on Friday night in Anaheim in a 4-2 loss in which they gave up the first four goals in the first period and never recovered.
Sharks coach Pete DeBoer expressed the predictable outlook that Dallas will only be more dangerous headed into Saturday’s game against the Sharks (22-18-2, 46 points), as it looks to get rolling again.
“I’d rather have a team come in here winning than losing,” said DeBoer, whose club will be looking for its fifth straight win.
