Morin talks Calder Cup, hopeful for shot in Dallas

Texas Stars forward Travis Morin joined NHL Live to discuss his performance in the American Hockey League's Calder Cup Finals.

Morin's goal 7:20 into overtime gave the Dallas Stars' AHL affiliate a 2-1 win against the St. John's IceCaps in Game 3 on Wednesday and a 2-1 lead in the best-of-7 series.

In addition to winning a Calder Cup, Morin, 30, has his sights on getting another shot in the NHL. He leads Texas in playoff scoring (7-12-19) after earning a team-high 88 points (32 goals, 56 assists) during the regular season.

"I just try to keep improving," Morin said. "They tell me I just need to get quicker and make plays faster, and I think that's what I started to do this year. Hopefully it leads to something next year."
