By MA Insights
The Penguins lead 1-0 after Kris Letang opened the scoring and largely dictated the first period. Pittsburgh out-attempted Dallas 24-9, held 8 high-danger chances to 3, and out-produced them in expected goals (1.19–0.44). Blake Lizotte even struck the post; the Stars need to generate cleaner looks and more shot volume before the horn.
