The Dallas Stars pull out a gritty 4-2 win over the Vegas Golden Knights in game four and tie the series at two games a piece heading back to Dallas. On today’s episode of Locked On Stars, Joey breaks down the defensive clinic the Stars put on in the 3rd period to shut down the Vegas attack and close out the win. Amazing performances from defenseman Chris Tanev and Esa Lindell who both had four blocks and led the stand in the third. We also discuss the incredible shift from Roope Hintz that led to his eventual empty net goal to seal the win. Joey goes on to talk about the adversity the Stars went through in the regular season with injuries to Miro Heiskanen and Jake Oettinger, and how we are starting to see the impact and resilience in this series. To finish off the recap, Joey goes into the chess match between Pete DeBoer and Bruce Cassidy heading into game five. Both teams know how to shut one another down, but now it feels like a game of adjustments and Dallas has the edge in the last two games.

Go Stars!
hell yeah! back from the dead and then some!
I think u mean tied… not tide my dude. Go stars❤❤
Mark Stone is going to look like even more of a meth dealer as his hair continues to thin
I’ve been kinda critical about Otter’s consistency all season but the one thing that you can’t deny is he can be a brick wall when he needs to be and he showed that tonight. I didn’t like how Dallas was trying to play passive and conservative when Vegas was going full forecheck on them in the 3rd. But they were great defensively. I felt nauseous just watching but Otter was definitely the playoff hero of the game imo.
We beat them at their own game tonight. We can do that twice more. I think Vegas is the team that is most like us. They hit a lot more, which i think ultimately hurts their game and slows it down. But Dallas is formidable, and none of the other teams play like we do. There's a lot of hunger where the old legs should be. No need to get ahead of wednesday, so we can talk potential opponents when it's appropriate. Forgot how crafty ol Dads can be. That shot was insane. Go Stars!
Go Stars!
The Stars eclipse the knights into the Dark Ages.
Wyatt Johnston has been awesome in this series! The kid has a heck of a wrist shot!
Wyatt Johnston has been awesome in this series! The kid has a heck of a wrist shot! Tanev is a beast! Pavelski has been somewhat non existent. Not sure what’s going on with him.
Another great break down buddy! I agree with your take almost verbatim. My confidence with Otter has been almost nill since mid last season and I started to think he's just not that guy. That he wasn't up to the challenge but he's starting to get something going and maybe this is the turning point…I truly hope so. The other issue has been the lack of offense from the Star players on the top 2 lines in this series. Your best players have to be your best players to make a run for the cup. Hope to see Robo, Hintz, playoff Pavelski and Duchesne finally get it going and start lighting the lamp and contributing on a greater level. Let's go!!!!!!!!!
as a lifelong stars fan its really nice to hear people like you who know the game cheer them on. Keep it up! Lets go STARS!! We got this boys
We finally cracked the code on the Knights
Not seeing a lot of Vegas "fans" in here now huh?! Lol Go Stars! 🏒💫
