The Stars’ top scorers stand up
Roope Hintz, Joe Pavelski, Tyler Seguin and Jason Robertson — the Dallas Stars’ top four scorers — scored in a 7-2 win over the Minnesota Wild on Wednesday.
Hintz leads the Stars with 17 goals, while Pavelski and Seguin have 16. Robertson has his 15e of the season.
Nils Lundkvist had a goal and an assist. Matt Duchene and Sam Steel also scored for the Stars, who spoiled Jesper Wallstedt’s National Hockey League debut.
Aged 21, the goalkeeper made 24 saves. Quebecer Marc-André Fleury, who is only one victory away from beating Patrick Roy for second place in the history of the circuit, had a night off.
The Wild are therefore 1-6-0 in their last seven meetings.

Matt Boldy had a goal and an assist for the Wild. Ryan Hartman was the other scorer.
The Stars swept the three-game series against the Wild this season.
