About the Stars
The Stars (1-1-0) are coming off a 6-5 loss at Colorado Saturday. The Stars jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first period, but the Avalanche scored five straight goals to go up 5-2, and the Stars could never catch up.
"We didn't do enough to win a hockey game and didn't deserve to win," said Stars captain Jamie Benn. "When you score five and give up six, that is unacceptable. We've got things to clean up."
Antti Niemi made his second straight start Saturday but was pulled in the second period after allowing five goals on 20 shots. Kari Lehtonen played the rest of the way, stopping 12 of 13 shots.
