Date: 2-19-2022
Game 1: Pool Play vs. Dallas Stars Elite (Dallas, TX)
Result: KC Mavs 1
Dallas Stars Elite 4
Recap:
The Dallas Stars Elite program was a formidable opponent, hailing from a large youth organization in the
Dallas Area, with several rinks and teams playing under the Stars umbrella. KC had just returned from
Fargo a few days earlier, and now found themselves on the opposite edge of the U.S., playing a top-20
nationally ranked team.
The Mavs struck first, led by a great forecheck effort by Buscher which resulted in a rebound goal by
Hargadine. KC had hoped the early goal would be an omen of good things to come, jumping out to the
1-0 lead. But as it turned out, it was their only goal of the game. Dallas played an extremely tough
game, firing slapshot after slapshot from their D-line, and outshooting the Mavs all morning.
KC dropped its first game of the weekend tournament, which also happened to be its first tournament
loss all season.
