Neither the Dallas Stars nor the New Jersey Devils can really get much going through two periods on offense. The Stars and Devils have combined for a total of 28 shots, with each team having 14. Both goaltenders, Johan Hedberg and Kari Lehtonen, as we said in the last update, haven’t had to do much work in the game as both offenses are not challenging the goaltenders. Eighteen players have registered a shot in this game with no player having more than two shots on goal.
Devils Vs. Stars: Offensive Ineptitude Leads To Scoreless Game Through Two Periods
The hitting discrepancy is still going on through two periods. The Stars are outhitting the Devils 21-10 with three players registering three hits a piece for the Stars: Brendan Morrow, Steve Ott, and Tomas Vincour. The Devils have two players with multiple hits: Anton Volchenkov with three and Brian Rolston with two.
The scoring freeze has to break, though this could very well head to a scoreless shootout victory.
