The Dallas Stars lost their playoff opener in a game that stretched into the early morning hours. It was a four-hour marathon that ended with heartbreak for the home crowd.Ryan Hartman had just circled around the net when a deflected puck came toward him. He quickly scored to give the Minnesota Wild a victory over thein their playoff opener — a game that began Monday night and dragged into early Tuesday morning.
"Just a bounce that went their way," Oettinger said. "We had a couple that didn’t go our way and that’s hockey. ... Tight game and two good teams, and it’s going to be a heck of a series.
The Stars said the 38-year-old Pavelski was doing OK afterwards, but his status for the next game was uncertain. "To be honest, I thought it was a clean hit," Dumba said. "Shoulder on shoulder. I don’t even know why I got the roughing, probably because I was just in the box already."The uniforms, which will be worn by the team on Friday games this season, celebrate the baseball heritage of Fort Worth and Dallas and how baseball brought the cities together in Arlington for the Texas Rangers.
Kirill Kaprizov had a power-play goal for the Wild in the final minute of the first period. He was right in front of the net and Oettinger for a nifty deflection of captain Jared Spurgeon’s shot. Hintz scored from above the middle of the circles only three seconds after getting the puck off Benn’s faceoff win to start the Stars’ first power play. Benn took the faceoff after Pavelski got kicked out of the circle to start the first power play.
