Dallas looks like it could be this year’s breakout team in the Western Conference as it has gotten elite goaltending. The biggest question is whether it has enough offense or can acquire it during the season to make a deep run.
The Stars suffered their 1st loss in regulation Monday, falling 4-2 at the Ottawa Senators, with backup G Scott Wedgewood taking his 2nd loss in as many starts.
Boston has gotten off to a great start as well, aided by the fact that this is its 5th home game in 7 games. RW David Pastrnak has picked up where he left off with 4 goals and 6 assists to start the year.
