Dallas Stars beat the St. Louis Blues 2-1 in their regular-season finale on Wednesday.
Jake Oettinger made 26 saves in regulation and overtime before stopping all three attempts in the shootout as the Central Division champion Dallas Stars beat the St. Louis Blues 2-1 in their regular-season finale Wednesday night.
Fans cheered in the closing seconds of regulation knowing Dallas had already secured the No. 1 seed and home-ice advantage throughout the Western Conference playoffs. Pacific Division champion Vancouver has one game left, but can only reach 111 points with a win Thursday. The Stars will play either reigning Stanley Cup champion Vegas or the Los Angeles Kings in the first round of the playoffs. Both have home games Thursday night to finish the regular season. One of them will finish third in the Pacific Division and the other will be a wild card headed to Dallas, where the Golden Knights last season wrapped up the Western Conference Final with a Game 6 victory.St.
“We showed that we can compete with the best, for sure, and hopefully that sends a message to evolve the team to make some decisions that are for the better and for us to be more competitive next year," Binnington said."It’s unfortunate to not make the playoffs, but it’s a good final game and we have more. There are better days ahead.”
