Offenseĭallas has a true superstar on their hands with Jason Robertson, who scored 46 goals and 109 points in his third NHL season – both career highs. The Stars definitely have higher expectations as one of the top teams in the West, but, sometimes, you can’t beat heart. So, which team believes in themselves the most? They played fairly even hockey during the season and both had similar strengths in their opening matchups. So to beat the defending Cup champs in their first postseason run is something quite special, even if there are a few players that have gone the distance before and understand the rigors of a tough playoff run. They’ve crushed preseason expectations and are still new as a group. The Kraken, however, are flying high with nothing to lose.
