One game after pulling off their biggest win of the season, the Bruins failed to ride the momentum, falling flat in a 7-2 loss to the Stars Thursday night at American Airlines Center. The Bruins fell to 8-8-2 as they continued their maddening, season-long pattern of one-step-forward, two-steps-back hockey.

The Stars’ dominant 7-2 win over the Boston Bruins Thursday brought a night of milestones and memorable individual performances. Both Dallas’ oldest players and youngest had meaningful moments to make the dominant win a night many on the team won’t forget.

The Dallas Stars never trailed and used three goals in a 5:34 span late in the second period to blow past the visiting Boston Bruins 7-2 on Thursday, sweeping the teams' two-game season series.
