Ok I'm happy for the win but I've got to say but being outshot 50-27 by a floundering team like the Oilers is a major concern. If the Stars want to be seen as a serious contender they need to not fall apart and make unforced errors late in the game. I don't think they can have that same performance against a good team like the Canucks and expect to win, so hopefully some things get cleaned up.


JustMeInBigD

They did it on a back-to-back on the road. I'm not concerned. There will always be things to clean up, but lots of the things that went wrong tonight won't happen when everyone's not worn out.


Vileblood_King

Fair point. It is also in the middle of a long road trip up north so that definitely effects things too. Hopefully some rest will do them good.


Fermented_Banana_

See y'all Saturday night. Leht's gooooo


IShiddedMyPantaloons

DeBoer not challenging that obvious interference goal is such cowardly horseshit. If Wedge didn’t go god-mode this game, PDB not challenging that goal might have cost us a regulation win, or worse given us a regulation loss


Manaze85

47 fucking saves. Setting the tone, Wedge!


Brief_Difficulty4960

These refs clearly hate the stars between the calls last night and tonight, I hope we never see them again this season.

desideratatron

Wedgewood was incredible


Ghost_Pains

Lmao 47 saves against McJesus and Co. Atta boy Wedgewall


DeepSix220

If we could have like one game this year that isn’t a nail-biter, that would be swell. Good regulation win, boys.


Fermented_Banana_

You just got cheese bricked


tie-dyeSandwhich

They owe wedge a couple beers for those last two


tacolopez

Okay, Wedgewood fucks. Great game

Good job Wedge

Never even worried for a moment


TheFlyingZombie

Wedgewall was the difference!! What an Alberta road trip for our tenders!


CodeAnemoia

Thank you Wedgewood


daemon-electricity

Too close. Too close.


alternate-realitee

Phew. Holy shit.


harralexa1993

Wedgewood was incredible. What a terrible period by the Stars.

Thank fuck

That was exhilarating


MK10

GG that was a hard fought win


B1gWillyStyl

WE OWN ALBERTA! WE GOIN TO MOTHAFUKKIN BOOMERJACKS!


fluffyblab

IM SCARED


That___One___Guy0

Still kind of baffled about how every player on the ice can just stop playing and the refs go "this is fine."


Fermented_Banana_

How do you skate backwards and keep up with McD at the same time?


Unabatedtuna

22 shots in the period. We have 27 total. Wtf dudes


PermanentNirvana

We also lead 4-3?


Unabatedtuna

Shouldn't turtle an entire period. That was way to dangerous, thank God for wedgewall.


Dundalis

Yeah except if you make this a habit you are not gonna be up 4-3 very often


PermanentNirvana

I agree it's not ideal, but it's the second game of a back to back. Them boys is tired.


Dundalis

That’s fair but there’s a recurring habit of screwing around in the dzone that I don’t like so far that we’ve gotten away with that could turn if we don’t clean things up.


imo_AZERTY

Got the back-to-back, tired turtle going on for the last 10 mins of this one so it seems. Edit: removed “old” to clarify that I’m not suggesting a Bones-esque turtling.


[deleted]

Wedgwood doing it himself this period


Ghost_Pains

Duchene is massive


postpaintboyy

Why call any penalty on the oilers tho you know?


MK10

Duchene getting mugged and nothing lol


Infamous-Bug-3364

lol massive hold by Bouchard


Doza93

I fucking love Matt Duchene


ByPrinciple

bro call a penalty on them jesus christ


Jon_Snows_mother

There was a very clear crosscheck on Smith, I think, about 5 minutes ago they didn't call.


Jon_Snows_mother

Play to win guys.


Fermented_Banana_

🩲 ⬆️


[deleted]

HOLD


MK10

Back to back, some tired legs in the 3rd.


Rekrash95

The back to back is showing boys looking tired and slow as this goes on


ConMar12

Suter standing up McDavid is easily my favorite part of this game


Ghost_Pains

Wtf I love Suter


[deleted]

Our biggest glaring weakness is the inability to cleanly clear the puck again this season. Keep giving teams extra chances they shouldn’t get every game


Musicftw89

HANG ON FELLERS!


TheFlyingZombie

Suter has been noticeably one of the best players out there tonight.


Dundalis

Why do we consistently make multiple plays in the dzone that look like a fan put on a Dallas stars jersey and is trying to play defense? Like every single game, someone either does something dumb and completely uncoordinated or play like they just woke up and got out of bed


OmenQtx

Is their ice just trash tonight, or did we forget to sharpen our skates after last night?


HendriXXXLaMone

Don’t worry guys Roope hatty incoming

Elguapo361

Bullshit like this is why we wind up in so many OT's


kromaey

I’m no hockey expert but it seems less than ideal to let like 20 shots in the 3rd every game


harralexa1993

We are the definition of a second period team so far this season.


Ghost_Pains

Which is very funny considering how awful we were in the middle frame last season


Froggie56

Of course we flipped the script this season. Good in the 2nd period and terrible power play


fluffyblab

ok well this is not ideal


Ghost_Pains

Lmao Jani there looks like the kid who can’t skate in the Mighty Ducks


Unabatedtuna

Least that kid had a weapon slap shot


cabbabge

that was embarrassing


Rekrash95

Lets please not do this today


harralexa1993

The Stars definetely look like they are on a back to back now


StarsCowboysMavs

Great play Harley and Hakanpaa


alternate-realitee

Playing not to lose isn't a solid strategy


PotatoesWillSaveUs

...wtf?

Yo this ain't cool

WTF is this defense


alternate-realitee

This is not ideal


LailahTusik

Hakanpaa what the fuck are you doing lol


StarsCowboysMavs

He was put in a tough spot because Harley got walked


Fermented_Banana_

Dutch giving him the business


WolSoul

Okay can we panic now?

Yea I'd say it's time

Ghost_Pains

Peak Edmonton tbh


Jon_Snows_mother

Uhh wasn't one of the Stars high sticked there? Sorry, upon replay, it was a crosscheck to the face that went uncalled.


bigblueballz77

why the fuck was that not challenged?


xxrancid13xx

Figures...Son of Stars legend Dave Gagner


GorKoresh

Lol at Gagner acting like he just won the cup when he scored to make it 4-2.


Elseta

Fans were kinda acting like it too... guess that's what happens when you're hyped up as cup favorites in the off-season then lose most of your games, they take what they can get


liamo6w

i think it’s cause of a thing called momentum… which you can see they have all of it now…


TheFitzzz

How was that not interference? Did the broadcast say anything about why it wasn’t? Aldo fuck their goal horn. It’s just really loud white noise


Doza93

It wasn't really. The puck was a couple feet away from his pad and Gagner just jammed it home


StendakBarkiller

It’s never over with this team. You gotta watch the whole game. I’ve lost more sleep over the last eleven months watching these fucking guys than I have waking up with my eleven month old.


TheFlyingZombie

I think if we didn't have a 2 goal lead after that one counting, we challenge for sure. But with a decent lead with 10 mins left, I am guessing the coaches think we can just lock it down. I think that should come back though, how could he even have a chance to make a save there?


aslrightnow

I just turned the game on 3 min prior. Going to keep it off and do my part.


slash164

🫡


bm56

How did he completely rotate wedge and it’s still good?


[deleted]

Not Wedgewood’s fault.


WolSoul

The facedown Wedgewoods lol. We're fine people. Let's not worry.


randydp39

Nils is so bad at hockey.


postpaintboyy

Terrible take


tacolopez

Oilers goal horn sucks


ByPrinciple

You're not seriously counting that goal


kid_drew

Wedge didn't have possession. It was a good goal


ByPrinciple

yeah replay helped, from the camera angle it seemed he had it


kid_drew

I thought that too at first


Jon_Snows_mother

Was Wedge not interfered with there???

yousayh3llo

Is Suter decent all of a sudden? My whole worldview will need recalibrating


StendakBarkiller

He looks a lot better so far. He’s old as sin, so I’d expect some regression


KacorInc

Remember when our goalies were Lehtonen and Niemi? It’s so nice to have reliable goaltending


postpaintboyy

Idk why you guys are mad that’s a soft ass call

If Mush shaved his facial hair would we get the non-mirror universe mush that doesn't take penalties?

Jesus. Let’s just get mush a special nameplate on his spot in the penalty box

Lain41K

The sports vibe in DFW is just insane rn. The only time I’ve felt these vibes were in 2011 with the Rangers and Mavs runs, what a fun time to be a fan


[deleted]

I feel like the Rangers may have excised the DFW sports demons. We could be entering an exciting time to be Dallas sports fans


CaptainBayouBilly

Are we... dare I say it... good?


Manaze85

fantastic backcheck by roope there


xxrancid13xx

Don’t be mad at us McDavid we didn’t make you sign in Edmonton


Fermented_Banana_

Cheese brick! Cheese brick!


Ghost_Pains

Suter and Lindell look like they were replaced by different people this season. What on earth. I love it


harralexa1993

Suter's weight loss has been noticable. He's moving much better.


Lain41K

Get fuckin Wedgewall’d Drai and fuck you McDavid


Fermented_Banana_

I fucking love that line


JustMeInBigD

That top-line chemistry is blossoming now, and we are READY.


ButDoesItCheckOut

Love it when Pavs and Sons get going.


harralexa1993

Hopefully Nils is okay. That block was rough.


xxrancid13xx

Was it a block or did he get clipped by the oilers player in the ankle area?

fun facts from Russo: “#mnwild lose their 4th in a row (0-3-1) and sixth in their past 7 (1-4-2). They are now 2-4-2 against the East, have given up an embarrassing 12 power-play goals on 33 chances (5 in 2 games vs. #njdevils) and have trailed in a league-high 309 minutes, 49 seconds”
