The Stars had a fantastic game yesterday with Mike McKenna notching his 27th career AHL shutout. Texas needed every one of those saves as Sheldon Dries was the only player to break through for a 1-0 victory. Can Landon Bow follow that up today against an Iowa offense that is ranked 9th in the league at 3.20 goals per game. The Wild and Stars are actually in nearly the same spot in the goals against column with 3.04 and 3.12 goals against per game, respectively.
