Tobias Stephan made 19 saves and earned his first NHL win after leading the Dallas Stars to a 4-2 victory last night, giving the Minnesota Wild their first loss of the season.
Stephan redeemed himself last night, trying to forget the loss of his last NHL game. In 2007, he was put in net against Chicago and appeared to be leading the team to a shutout win. The Wild were ahead by one point but with 1.5 seconds left, the Blackhawks scored leading the game to overtime. Unfortunately, the Stars lost the game.
It’s great that he was given a second chance and was able to win the game. Congrats to Tobias for getting his first win in the NHL!
Here’s the scoring summary:
- MIN: Bergeron, M. (PPG, 06:13 in 1st), Brunette, A. (PPG, 03:55 in 3rd)
- DAL: Morrow, B. (00:13 in 1st), Ott, S. (12:45 in 1st), Richards, B. (15:39 in 1st), Niskanen, M. (PPG, 12:06 in 2nd)
