Beaten Down Stars Lose Again 5-2 Against Wild

The Stars came into Minnesota with revenge on the mind from last year's season finale loss against the Wild that kept the Stars out of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, and caused a lot of changes to go on in the offseason including a new head coach Glen Gulutzan. The Stars looked ready to avenge the loss when Eric Nystrom got the first goal of the night 18:38 into the game. Minnesota would tie it back up 9:06 into the 2nd period with a goal by Devin Setoguchi. Philip Larsen would get his first goal of the season just over 2 minutes later. After taking the lead for the last time in the game, the game would go all down hill from there. Letting the Wild get 3 more goals after that basically put the game away for the Dallas Stars. With that loss the Stars are still looking at the Western Conference playoff picture from outside the top 8. Their next game will be at home taking on the Ducks with the puck drop scheduled for 7:30.
