The Dallas Stars kept saying they felt they were close. The San Jose game was more of what they wanted. The proverbial corner was close to being turned.
Apparently they were right.
Loui Eriksson had two goals and Mike Ribeiro and Stephane Robidas each had three points as the Stars beat the Kings 7-2 at Staples Center on Saturday afternoon. The Stars snapped a five-game losing streak and remained in fifth place in the Western Conference.
Sure, the Stars were fine with the bounty of goals that came their way. More important, though, was the way they played. The complete game has been missing for a while, but it was in evidence Saturday.
