Stars Blank Celebrini-less Sharks 5-0 for First Win of Season

The Dallas Stars finally found their offense — and their first win. Dallas dominated the San Jose Sharks 5-0 on Monday, with Jamie Benn and Jason Robertson recording a goal and an assist apiece, and Jake Oettinger stopping all 13 shots for his 17th career shutout.

The Stars, who had managed just one goal total in their first two games, broke through on Miro Heiskanen's goal late in the first period and never looked back. Joel Kiviranta and Mikko Rantanen also scored, with Roope Hintz adding two assists.

San Jose was dealt a blow before puck drop when star center Macklin Celebrini — who had five assists in the Sharks' first two wins — was a late scratch with a lower-body injury after taking part in warmups. Coach Ryan Warsofsky had no update afterward, saying only the team would "evaluate tonight and tomorrow." The Sharks' two-game winning streak to open the season is over, while Dallas finally has something to build on.
