Casey DeSmith Stops 46 Shots Against Calgary
2 days agoDallas Stars goaltender Casey DeSmith stopped 46 of the 48 shots he saw en route to defeating the Calgary Flames on Thursday evening. The Flames had nearly double Dallas' shot total, but DeSmith was able to lead the way. His first blemish came in the second frame when center Nazem Kadri beat him with a wrist shot. In the third period, Kadri would strike again, this time on the power play for his 30th goal of the season. Even though Jake Oettinger sees the majority of starts in the Dallas crease, DeSmith has been effective when called on. Over his previous eight starts, DeSmith has posted an impressive 7-0-1 record with a .938 save percentage and a 1.98 GAA. Given his low ice time, he is only worth rostering in deeper formats.
