Stars' Matt Murray Shuts Out Wild in Career First, Dallas Ends Losing Streak

Minnesota Wild Struggles Continue, Jesper Wallstedt May Debut in Rematch

  • Matt Murray, the undrafted 25-year-old goalie, recorded his first career NHL shutout in his fourth career start, helping the Dallas Stars to a 4-0 win over the Minnesota Wild.
  • The Stars' penalty kill was perfect on six Wild power-play opportunities, and Dallas scored two short-handed goals.
  • Minnesota Wild's goalie Marc-Andre Fleury was denied the 552nd victory of his NHL career, which would have moved him past Patrick Roy for the second most wins by a goalie in league history.
  • The Wild have lost five of their last six games, and this was their second time being shut out this season.
  • The Wild are considering starting 2021 first-round pick Jesper Wallstedt in Wednesday night’s rematch in Dallas.
