Shots For Everyone

I seem to remember Wayne Gretzky saying something about missing 100% of the shots you don't take. Crawford must have mentioned that to the team during warm ups, because Dallas has 47 shots on goal in tonight's 2-1 victory over the Vancouver Canucks. Everyone had a shot, from Benn to Wandell, led by Morrow with eight. The Stars pelted rookie Cory Schneider all night, who played well considering how many saves he made, but Marty Turco out dueled him, stopping 32 of 33 for his fourth win of the season. Dallas' healthy stretch lasted all of one game, since James Real Deal Neal missed last night's contest due to a groin injury (listed as day to day).

First Period (0-0)
No Scoring
Second Period (0-1)
Brad Richards opened the scoring with a tight shot top shelf stick side.
Third Period (1-2)
Brenden Morrow gets the game winner since Mason Raymond scored not too long after.

-Marty Turco continues to play well, which the team needs since they aren't lighting the lamp as much as they could.
-Dallas played a disciplined game, only taking two penalties towards the end of the game.
-My last post was very AP style since I decided to practice some for how I'll write for school.

Up Next:
Dallas takes on Minnesota tonight, in a match up I always enjoy watching. I'm hoping the rivalry of New/Old Minnesota heats up. The Wild aren't the greatest this year, so I'll take Dallas over Minny 4-2
