NHL Highlights | Stars vs. Jets | October 09, 2025

What will they have in store for us this year? 
That story begins to unfold right now as Hints is beaten by Shankley at the dawn and the 
new season of Jets hockey is underway. He played 13 games against the Jets with three 
teams last year, seven in the regular season and six in the playoffs. He didn’t do much in 
the regular season, but he picked it up in the postseason as Steel spins with it. The former 
Duck firstrounder. Good pass to the front. Hell made the save and Renon and scores on the 
rebound. Miko Ranton and opens the scoring. Well, that’s how dangerous Miko Ranton and 
can be. These are plays that are not normally allowed to pass through. So, Flurry up 
on the second pairing with Neil Peon. That pass gets right through the crease. 
All eyes follow the puck and then uh-oh, the big man left all alone as Hayden Flurry 
loses his stick, loses his footing. And the damage that Rantin did against the Jets in 
the Conor had a hard time handling that, but it’s bodied out by Valardi who gets it back. 
Brings it over the blue line, stops and takes a look. Valardi directly out by Connor. Didn’t 
pull the trigger. There he goes. He scores. Nine straight season openers with a point for Kyle 
Connor. We’re tied at one. The ink hasn’t even dried yet on his new 8-year extension for Kyle 
Connor. And he counters with a beautiful little sauce pass from his best buddy Mark Shipley. Look 
at that touch. And he doesn’t pull the trigger on the first attempt, but makes sure on the second 
one. Baron looking for Key. Stars take it back in. Robertson leaves it. Strong play there. And Key 
now a shot. They score and it’s Lungquist from the slot. The trailer, the defenseman makes it two to 
one. Credit for a second point in this game. It’s him right there on that far side. Look at the 
way he holds the puck, fends off the checker, and then makes the play all at the same time. 
That is brilliant. Big strong man making a really difficult play. Nice pass. Lquist not known 
for his offense. Goes cross Logan Stanley. onto the stick of Johnston Hill. He can man 
that for Tyler Sen shoots. Stopped by Helson gets that loose puck. Second with time throws it 
back. Lunch shoots and a blocker saved by Hob for Morrisy. 5 minutes into the second period. 2-1 
Stars Connor his pass came right back toward him. He’s looking to get it back if he can. Shley 
here and he bring it off the iron. What a chance. and how he angles this puck. A little chip down 
low from Kyle Connor. There’s Shley right off of his hip and it’s on his stick off his stick. 
Little backhand compliment and Valardi rings the bell on the outside of the post. Oh, glorious. 
Reaching back is Tanner Pearson. Here he comes. Bursting on the left side is Morgan Barrett. 
An opening for Pearson. Block right in. He got the shot away. Chen takes that pass and direct 
that one wide and Sigan gets a friendly bounce. looking for hits just on side and he is shot 
sticky by rink wide and this is well behind Jason Robertson but he knows he just used the 
angle keeps his feet moving and hasten to ratin looking for his third point of the night delays 
shot stop by and he made another one but hits and hangs on confusion as a decoy net front number 24 
there’s good traffic and the way that he spins to the puck. He’s behind the Stars get the puck 
back now. Hits. Will he shoot it? That’s off the skate of Nestikov and it hit the stick of 
Moresy. That probably kept it from going out and Biancas on and they score in front. Robertson 
scores on the power play and it’s three to one. Turns into a four on two and a half. And this is 
a really good second shot from Jason Robertson. Watch how tight he is in to get that thing up 
and elevated. Rantin with his third point of this hockey game. He’s been an absolute stud all 
the way around. A rebound and quickly and that would be on the pad most of the time. Robertson 
certainly has touch and tight. So back to five skaters aside. Harley on the move. He’ll drop 
it. Dane those great feet spin. Sets it up and Sean scores. What a nice goal. Tyler Sean makes 
it four to one Dallas. Oh boy. Is that fancy from Matt Duchain? This is special. It’s one of those 
plays that that can’t be taught. Head man and Harley gives it right back. And look at that spin 
move head up and a perfectly placed pass to the back door for Sean. Matt Duchaine. I talked with 
him at length this morning. He’s coming off of two one-year contracts. But Tyler Sean again he tried 
to roof it and Halleuck stuck still made the save. Johnston as the Stars really buzzing now. Harley 
turns away from Gabriel Valardi. Blunt fist good pass through and a shot by Johnston 
and he scores and it’s 51 Dallas. Yeah, and this is more of the same. The fourth line on 
the ice wouldn’t be used to seeing these types of shots. A nice stop up from Thomas Harley, 
a young defender who can skate. What a talent he is. and he makes a beautiful play out to 
Wyatt Johnson. And there’s Tyler Sean doing an excellent job. Dallas Stars Pearson knocks 
it down. Now maybe something for Morgan Baron driving with that Pearson. Baron Pearson, 
you got a piece of it. Balling that one, but you’re Oxford banging the stick. Centering 
pass. Look out. That’s chipped away. And Morgan Baron’s going to get ahead of Steve. Baron 
trying to get it to the net. Morgan Baron scores. A beauty from Baron. It’s short-handed 
and it’s five to two. Out of a cannon. Two short-handed goals last year. Both came in 
the same game. And look at him get those wheels going. Just as the two penalties expired, 
he had one more guy to deal with on route to this absolutely beautiful goal. 33 km of 
steam heading up the ice. Forehand backhand five left in the Dallas power play. Good read 
by Pock, but he couldn’t clear it. Chopped out there by DeLo. Johnston lost the glove. He 
got it back. Sent through. Shley will grab it. Take it off as Kyle Connor and the race is 
on. Connor to the net. Shot. Rebound. Scores. This is what you need from your game breakers 
and Kyle Connor is certainly one of those. They almost had a breakaway earlier. Didn’t 
didn’t transition into a goal on the second attempt. Connor much like his first goal 
in this game and took two shots to find the back of the net. Two short-handed 
goals on the same Morsy drags it in. Connor to Dylan Deloley took it. Swings it over. 
Well pass the defense fell shoots and scores. Let those fly. It’s a onegoal game. For him specifically, he’s had three different 
examples in this game alone. He just has a sixth sense. Shley does a no look pass a little soft 
buttery pass in tight doesn’t matter what it is Shley has a way to find Connor and Shley says 
he just knows where to go he knows where to be well he’s done it three different times in this 
game not a pretty game but an exciting game now a three-goal deficit is erased down to just 
one and there’s time 303 remains he’ll leave it the pass by Connor knocked down by Shley 8 
seconds Shley steered it on the stick side of the goal is there. Morrisy comes in and Dallas 
is going to hang on and win it five to four.

  1. A win is a win despite that almost hideous ending in the 3rd period by the Stars (giving up two shorthanded goals in that period is inexcusable). The Stars' sixth-straight season opener win which currently the longest streak in the NHL.

  2. I know a loss is a loss but I’ll take going home celebrating 4 goals and a hattrick to battle back over going out with a wimper after 2 periods. Really thought Toews would tie it for that Manitoba Magic but happy to see the fight.

  3. Really bad start from the Jets going into the 3rd period with 15 shots on goal… Hellebuyck needs to step up his game ASAP and the Defense was awful tonight.. too many tap in goals infront of the net
