November 12, 2005 - The Dallas Stars, after losing to archrival Los Angeles several days ago, went into St. Louis looking for the win. And that's just what they got, but barely, eaking out a 2-1 victory against a hot Rick Dipietro.
"He stopped 33 shots, and many of those were great scoring opportunities," said Trent Hunter who scored both Dallas goals (his 8th and 9th of the season) in the second half of the 3rd period. "He shut the door on us through two periods, but we finally got to him, just enough to win."
Andrew Raycroft finally had a solid showing, although not spectacular. He allowed 1 goal on 19 shots. The goal was scored in the 3rd when St. Louis took 11 shots. In the 1st period, the Blues were held to 1 shot.
Braindead and mediocre player, Steve Ott, got called for boarding and was ousted from the game at 18:25 of the 3rd period which helped Dallas score their only powerplay goal of the night (going 1-8). Ott hit defenseman Vitaly Vishnevski injuring him. He's now listed as day-to-day.
"Idiotic, dirty and pointless." said Coach Murray.
The Stars now have a few nights off before playinng their rivals once again, the Los Angeles Kings.
