Against all odds, the Ducks prevail on the road. The Stars start and finish goalscoring, but inside those two buns is a patty of five straight Ducks goals, including (miraculously) a powerplay goal, an assist from Steve Mason, and contributions from the various right defensemen filling in for Brent Seabrook. I assume his absence via suspension explains the minimal hostilities, but now that the Ducks have a chance to complete the legendary 0-3 series comeback at home, perhaps we'll see some fireworks on Friday.
* we will definitely see some schedule fuckery, where I'll have to artificially move the dates of earlier games back and also move the in-game date back about a week, because otherwise the Finals will overlap with the draft on the 16th, as Kevin astutely noted.
