Evgenii Dadonov led the Dallas Stars to a decisive 2-0 victory over the St. Louis Blues on Saturday night, contributing a goal and an assist. Casey DeSmith delivered a stellar performance in goal, achieving his second shutout of the season with 33 saves. The Stars, who have now won seven of their last nine road games, took control early when Dadonov scored at 7:07 in the first period, capitalizing on an error from Blues goalie Jordan Binnington, who lost his stick.

Esa Lindell doubled the Stars' lead with a power-play goal later in the first period, set up by Roope Hintz. The Blues struggled to find the back of the net, managing only 19 shots on goal throughout the game. Despite several close calls, including a near-goal from Mathieu Joseph that hit the post, the Blues were unable to capitalize on their opportunities. Dallas now prepares for a rematch against the Golden Knights, while the Blues look to regroup before facing Vancouver.
