The Dallas Stars faced tough competition, with their penalty kill (PK) and power play units in the spotlight. Despite executing potentially their best PK of the season, the Stars were trailing 2-1 in the second period when Jason Robertson beat goalie Joel Hofer to score. However, the Stars fell 2-1 to St. Louis, halting their six-game point streak (5-0-1) and Scott Wedgewood's personal 10-game point streak (8-0-2). Hofer was outstanding for the Blues, making 39 saves. In another match, the Stars were down 1-0 to Chicago before their power play unit responded, scoring 16 seconds into their first opportunity. The Blackhawks had established a 2-0 lead with a goal set up by Reichel for Guttman, but the Stars narrowed it to 2-1 with a power play goal, thanks to a play involving Benn, Pavelski, and Hintz.

Maybe the Stars' best PK of the season. And then Robertson follows with a goal. Dallas down 2-1 in 2nd.
Faulk turnover, Robertson beats Hofer, 2-1. You could see that coming. #stlblues #stars
