The Dallas Stars hosted the Kraken last night, and it was Casey DeSmith’s first game with his new team.
And it’s fair to say he did very well, because he allowed absolutely nothing to the opposition. 25-save shutout.

Usually, when you pull your goalie, it’s late in the third period, when your team is losing by a goal or two.
IT’S MARK SCHEIFELE OFF THE DRAW!
The @NHLJets pull the goalie with 2.9 seconds left in the first period and put one in the back of the net to tie it up! #NHLFaceOff pic.twitter.com/SPL6niu4f3
