Dallas Stars, seeking consistency, conclude homestand vs. Columbus Blue Jackets
The Dallas Stars will try to conclude their six-game homestand on a high note when they entertain the Columbus Blue Jackets on Oct. 31.
The Dallas Stars are concluding a six-game homestand against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Stars have experienced a two-game losing streak after a five-game winning streak. After falling 5-1 to the New Jersey Devils and then 5-2 to the Montreal Canadiens, coach Glen Gulutzan highlighted their poor puck play. However, the Stars have demonstrated their ability to recover quickly, having lost their first two games of the season before securing two shutouts against the San Jose Sharks and Buffalo Sabres.
Gulutzan believes the team needs to dig in and focus to overcome their current slump. The Stars will welcome Esa Lindell, Radek Faksa, and David Perron to their lineup following injury recoveries or signings. The Blue Jackets are coming off a 3-2 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes, following two overtime victories. They trailed 3-0 before scoring two goals in the final period.
Columbus coach Rick Bowness emphasized the importance of maintaining their script and playing strong hockey for the entire 60 minutes.
