Utah Hockey Club fell 2-1 to the Dallas Stars despite a strong effort.
Michael Carcone’s hard-nosed performance epitomized Utah Hockey Club’s overall game Monday against the Dallas Stars.
Carcone’s line with Alex Kerfoot and Kevin Stenlund pushed the tempo for Utah while skating with a certain edge and snarl. The trio combined for seven shots on goal — second-most of any line — were strong on the forecheck and maintained its energy through 60 minutes. He has now played 12 consecutive games and scored his first goal of the season Saturday in Las Vegas.
The Stars took a 1-0 lead in the second period while Clayton Keller sat in the penalty box for holding. Utah let Evgenii Dadonov have as much time and space as he wanted with the puck before the Dallas forward snapped it past Karel Vejmelka from the lower right circle at 7:07. Nick Schmaltz kept Utah in the fight in the final frame with his third goal in two games. After going 23 games in search of his first of the season, Schmaltz has finally been able to contribute on the scoresheet in a way that tangibly changes the complexion of games.Matias Maccelli picked up the puck along the boards and popped it over to Schmaltz who ripped it top-shelf from the high slot for the 2-1 scoreline at 6:57. Maccelli logged his first point since Nov. 15 with the assist on the play.
