After getting embarrassed on Friday, the Stars responded with a far better performance Saturday. Both games were against elite teams, and the compete level, according to Bowness, was night and day.
Bowness says he was proud of the way his team battled against the Lightning, and told the players before the game that, regardless of the outcome, they needed to leave with their heads held high.
