Stars Kept Alive in Game 3 Win over Ducks




     Last night was an awesome day for the Stars and all its fans! The Stars finally hosted a playoff game at the American Airlines Center for the first time since 2008. As you can see by the photo I took last night as I was lucky enough to get a ticket for the game the crowd was rocking and loud as ever! Scoring for the Stars started from the captain Jamie Benn knocking in his 2nd of the postseason giving the Stars a 1 to 0 lead into the first intermission, and the Stars did not look back from there.

   Val Nichushkin the 18 year old would get the Stars' second goal in the 2nd period. And then Ryan Garbutt would make it 3 to 0 in the 3rd period. The player of the game those was Goaltender Kari Lehtonen getting the complete game shut out stopping all 37 shots on goal just showing why he is one of the best goalies in the National Hockey League. The AAC had an attendance of 19,120 selling out the arena. Being there in person was an awesome experience. I was blessed to be at the Mike Modano jersey retirement ceremony earlier this season as well, and both nights the fans were extremely wild and into the game which makes this hockey fan excited and optimistic about the future. The Stars look to tie up the series 2 games a piece tomorrow night with a lot earlier of a start time at 7:00 at the ol' American Airlines Center!
