TORONTO — In the hours before the Stars’ 4-0 loss to the Maple Leafs on Tuesday night, Tyler Seguin prophesized his team’s matchup with Toronto first-time starting goaltender Erik Kallgren.
“It probably goes two ways with a new goalie,” Seguin said, “he’ll be unbelievable or he’ll be a little shaky.”
Kallgren posted a 35-save shutout in his first career NHL start, handing the Stars their third straight loss with the trade deadline less than a week away. After tying the Wild in the Central Division standings nine days prior, the Stars have fallen out of a playoff spot, albeit with four fewer games played than Vegas.
