Solid game, great to see. Otter played great, challenged shooters and stayed big (did you hear Razor say this). That's one in a row for him, have to start someplace.

I rewatched some of the game this morning for a separate piece, but I’ll keep an ear out for it!

It's good to be back in the Western Conference and the Central Division. The Stars looked a whole lot more motivated tonight and it made a difference. And that Punk hit on Robo -- the guy should not have gotten out of the arena alive, but I will take what happened as the best that they could have gotten done. Draw a circle around that guy; the Stars will be playing the Jets next season.

In fairness, the Jets would say they were retaliating for the reversal hit on Salomonsson.

But still. 😂

The reversal hit was clean though.. retaliating with a clean hit is fine.. a dirty one is not.

Well, no argument there.

Wonder if Morrow has been in town showing Robertson how to deliver the reversal. The two I saw him dish out were well timed and deliberate. He saw the check coming and just nailed both guys.

Probably what Pionk was barking about, if their guy ended up in concussion protocol.

Very much a Morrow move!

Impressive performance, especially from the depth guys who might not see ice time in the playoffs.

Happy to see Otter get the SO. I feel like we've seen Otter take shut outs to the middle of the 3rd and then give one up and often the game ends up being a nail-biter after it looked like a potential shut out. He was fantastic.

Get a point against Colorado and one against Calgary and that home ice is pretty much sewn up and they can rest some guys.

Yep. There’s a path to making the final week of the season a no-stress one, but they have to get there first.

Never easy in the NHL.
