Goaltenders Adin Hill and Marek Langhamer combined to allow nine goals on 54 shots. The power play for the Roadrunners registered zero goals on eight attempts, while the Stars scored five goals on the power play in only nine attempts. The Roadrunners started the back half of their long road trip on Tuesday night in San Jose.
