Total bedlam between Dallas and Florida. Somehow the puck stays out of the net.

Colin Blackwell with a hat trick of hits in one shift.

Catching up on games for Dallas Stars prospect Brandon Gorzynski, who continues to impress (seriously, watch out for this kid), but I was more struck whatever bloodfued is going on between Spokane and Calgary, who were hitting each other like this all night.

Arttu Hyry scores the first Texas Stars of the season. Great feed from Antonio Stranges. But the real star of this play was the pinch and sacrifice by Vladislav Kolyachonok.

Thomas Harley with some sick bladework.

Great goal by Nils Lundkvist that doesn't happen without Mikko Rantanen nonchalantly stiffarming a forechecker.

Lane Hutson Datsyuk's Chris Tanev in the corners.

Lian Bichsel does not care that it's the preseason.

Mavrik Bourque's pass here to Wyatt Johnston is the proverbial chef's kiss.

Lian Bichsel doing what he does second-best (he's got skills damnit!): giving opponents the smoke.
