Jamie Benn Leads the Way as Dallas Takes Lead in Series
4 years agoDallas Stars forward Jamie Benn picked up the game's first goal, a shorthanded marker coming just as play was changing from four-on-four to a Calgary power play. Benn also had a game-high six shots on net and two hits in the 2-1 victory. With points in four of the five games this series, Benn has been one of the series' most consistent producers despite seeing less than 17 minutes of ice time in three of the five games. Dallas has kept their top line loaded, playing Benn alongside Tyler Seguin and Alexander Radulov, which should help Benn maintain this hot streak. Despite scoring at a rate lower than a 25 goal pace (0.27 goals per game this year) in a season for the first time since the 2012-2013 season, Benn seems to have found his groove against Calgary.
