Another great night for Andrew Cogliano and Corey Perry ended with another great win for the Dallas Stars on Thursday night against the Anaheim Ducks.
Ben Bishop, the goalie for Dallas Stars saved 27 shots in his career’s 33rd shut pout victory for Dallas as they won over Anaheim Ducks by 3-0 for their 6th win in a row.
Roope Hintz scored 1 goal along with 1 assist while the other two goals were scored by Denis Gurianov and Alexander Radulov during the powerplay of the 3rd period. With this Dallas Stars have now completed a sweep in back to back games they played in Southern California. They are also the unbeaten team in the South since the Christmas game.
Bishop, who was also able to pick up an assist during his season’s 2nd shut out win in this game, said, “I think we were only sticking to our game plan. We were aware that they were a desperate team but we did a really great job in the 3 periods. The special team was a huge help. It was the key difference in this game.”
This game was the war welcoming for Cogliano and Perry, who came back to Anaheim for the very first time after joining the Dallas Stars in last season. Both of these veterans of NHL forwards enjoyed a lengthy career where they played as the forwards for Anaheim Ducks. Both of them received the standing ovation from the crowd gathered at the Honda Center following a video tribute from Anaheim Ducks.
Cogliano said, “I thought it was tough. It feels different being on the other side. For me, it was a little difficult to play at some times in this game but I still think it was a great game. You need to do what you need to do. A lot of emotions came back and I played through all of it.”
Up next, Anaheim Ducks will have a game on Saturday against the Chicago Blackhawks while Dallas Stars will have a final road game on Saturday against the San Jose Sharks.
