Dallas scored before the first minute was over, but spent the final two periods chasing an equalizer in a 2-1 loss to Nashville at Bridgestone Arena on Oct. 3, 2026.
Miro Heiskanen put the Stars ahead after just 47 seconds. Nashville answered twice on the power play: Steven Stamkos tied it, then Nils Hoglander supplied the go-ahead goal before the first intermission.
The scoring stopped there. Juuse Saros finished with 29 saves, turning away every Dallas attempt after Heiskanen’s goal.
Dallas outshot Nashville 12-6 in the third period and 30-26 overall, but the extra pressure didn’t change the score. Casey DeSmith made 24 saves for the Stars.

Colleyville Heritage scored twice in the final seven minutes to win 24–17; The Colony visits Community next.
The Mustangs’ 15-play, 83-yard march from their own 17 to Kevin Jennings’ touchdown offered substantial evidence that the offense was frayed rather than completely broken.
Friday’s Mavericks camp update made Tarik Biberović’s NBA path clearer: his shooting gets attention, while defense, rebounding and decision-making must make it playable.
