The Dallas Stars fell flat in St. Paul on Friday night losing to the Minnesota Wild by a score of 5-1. The Stars struggled to generate any offensive momentums and their defensive short comings reared their heads to often, allowing the Wild to score in pivotal moments. Can the Stars rally and bounce back on Sunday? Is there any reason for optimism heading into game four?

Jekyll & Hyde with this friggin squad
Well, this was depressing
Bad gut feeling about this post season since the clinch.
This game did nothing to ease it.
Ah well.
Game 1 was so lucky for the Wild! Flat is an understatement!
Somebody on the Dallas Stars needs to run over Matt Dumba for a statement
in 2019, we were losing 2-1 in round 1 againts nashvile and won the serie eventualy, in 2020 we were losing 2-1 againts calgary in round 1 and we won the serie eventualy
OTTER…OTTER…OTTER…OTTER
Someone please tell Miller they found his jock in the last stall of the ladies room! How many goals for Roope, Robertson, Benn? Big Old GOOSE EGG! FOLIGNO, DIVE JUDGE EXTROARDINAIRE!!!
There was no sense of urgency, whatsoever.. I didn't even notice Robertson, Seguin, or anybody else out there, outside of Wyatt Johnston. That was absolutely embarrassing. Sometimes you have to play dirty, especially when the other team is willing to get dirty themselves. There better be a change from the opening minute in game 4, otherwise this series is gonna fall apart
This is the weakest Stars team I've ever seen. Absolute cowards. Hankapaa had multiple opportunities to hit kirill. Nothing. Benn. Nothing. Faksa. Nothing. On and on and on. If they're going to be such va-jay-jays, they have to bring the skill and play through the dirty play. They won't. This team has 0 heart. 0 desire. They need to take away the C from Benn. No clue who they give it to though. The whole team is a joke. Hatcher or Morrow would have taken out dumbass and then knocked kirill out of the series. Even in their win, they didn't hit. And Otter. WTF. He's letting in soft goals in every game. Ot winner. 2 in game 2. 3 last night.
Wild fan here, and loving the series but I never knew Suter to be such a cheap shot artist when he played for our side. Sad to see that's his game now!
There's a steamroller coming
He's called Gus the Bus
All aboard baby
Statistically that was the worst xGoals performance of the season from the Dallas Stars.
xGoals tonight: 0.77
Second worst performance: 0.899 (Nov 21)
Extremely uncharacteristic performance from the stars, they’re gonna have to find a way to respond quickly.
We need to quit playing Minnesotas game!
Minnesota doesn’t miss the playoffs, Bud… we just get bounced in the first round, get your facts straight 😂
Game 1 2OT loss was a back breaker, Really was. But bottom line this team needs to play more aggressive and more physical. Robo been getting bullied every game, and Team looked beyond flat. Even if they somehow survive this series (which now Im 50/50 they cant come back), I dont see how this type of finesse hockey play wins a cup.
Enjoyed listening in on this. Great job man and good short to-the-point analysis. Will definitely come back more during this war of a series! Wild fan speaking btw! Love listening to both sides!
