The 2nd half of a back to back and an unusually late start.
The Canes were badly outplayed by Edmonton on Friday but still came away with a 3-1 win. Nino continued his hot streak with a pair of goals, giving him 8 in 12 games with the Canes. He has 3 multigoal games since the trade. Aho had 2 assists, Williams has 1, McElhinney made 40 games and was the first star. He’s been on a roll, but I’d expect Mrazek tonight. No skate this morning, RBA will have press availability at 5:45.
The Stars are closing a 5 game roadie and have gone 1-2-1, including a 6-0 pasting in Tampa on Thursday. They’re 6-3-1 in their last 10 games and hold the first wild card slot in the Western Conference, with 63 points in 57 games, tied with St. Louis for 3rd in the Central. Tyler Seguin has 24 goals and 54 points, Alexander Radulov has 31 assists. Ben Bishop is on IR, our old friend Anton Khudobin has played the previous 4 on the roadie but was pulled on Thursday after giving up 5 goals on 21 shots. He’s been good this year though, with a 2.50 GAA and .922 Save %. Dallas is 4th in the league in goals against per game at 2.56. Unfortunately, they’re 29th in goals for per game at 2.54. They’re 16th on the PP at 20.3%, tied for 5th on the PK at 82.5%.
Fox Sports Carolinas for TV. I think Jason Shaya is pinch hitting for Forslund again tonight.
