Dallas Stars vs Vancouver Canucks Live Online Streaming
First of four meetings this season. Each team won twice last season, but Vancouver captured the series by virtue of most points, going 2-1-1 with a shootout loss. Roberto Luongo won both his starts against Dallas, while Ryan Kesler led all scorers in the series with three goals. Looking to bounce back from a rare non-playoff season, Dallas has captured points in all three of its games. Vancouver, the defending Northwest Division champion, got off to an awful start but regained a lot of confidence by routing Montreal by a 7-1 score on Wednesday.
This is the conclusion of a three-game road trip through western Canada for Dallas, which rested starting goalie Marty Turco against Calgary on Friday and got a solid performance from new backup Alex Auld. Turco should be back in net on Sunday, but after he struggled late last season under a heavy workload, the early indication that Auld should be reliable has to be welcome news for the Stars.
Nothing less than two points was needed against Montreal to prevent panic from setting in, and Vancouver delivered it with authority. One win doesn't erase the poor start the Canucks got off to, however, and the next step is to try to put a winning streak together. "It's nice to get the win finally after four games," Luongo said after stopping 27 shots to beat the Canadiens. "We spoke about relaxing before the game and just going out there and just having fun, playing our game, and not worry about our record right now."
