Robertson Fires Away but Can't Break Through in Columbus
The Stars forward led Dallas forwards in ice time, yet the game ended with a shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.
Jason Robertson went without a point in Columbus, and the Stars left with an overtime loss. The final was 2-1 for the Blue Jackets, decided in a shootout.
Robertson played 20:30, the most of any Dallas forward and fourth among all Stars skaters. He put 3 shots on goal from 7 shot attempts, all at even strength. He also added 2 hits and a takeaway, and finished even on the plus-minus line.
The night had a rougher side. He gave the puck away 3 times and took 2 penalty minutes.
This was a departure from the scoring pace he has carried all season. He came in with 8 goals and 10 assists in 16 games, and he averages 19.8 minutes. Tonight's ice time was right on that mark, but the points did not come.
A quiet scoreboard night for him, and the Stars collect one point.
