DENVER — Across the first six weeks of the Stars season, heading into Saturday’s 4-1 loss to the Avalanche, it was tough to argue the Stars didn’t get what they deserved.
While Jake Oettinger stole an odd game early on, and the Dallas special teams put them in advantageous positions, the Stars’ results generally reflected how well they played. For the most part, they either won big or the lost big. Recently, they’ve robbed points via third-period comebacks.
On Saturday night, perhaps they deserved more than they received — at least based on the first two periods.
