The Stars were down two bodies heading into the game as defenceman Xavier Pouliot and forward Brogan O’Brien were unavailable to play and the Devils were quick to jump on their short-benched opponents as Brett Perlini opened the scoring.
Inside five minutes of play, Perlini would finish off a four-on-two counter-attack at the back post but 10 minutes later, Keanu Yamamoto would draw the Stars level with a high finish past Ben Bowns, from the slot.
Pete Russell’s side would then rega6in their lead just 20 seconds later though as Sam Duggan followed up on a rebound and managed to squeak it through the legs of Jarrett Fiske in the Dundee goal.
In the second period, Josh MacDonald made it 3-1 as he took a loose puck and dragged it around Fiske as he tried to knock it away, with the Devil backhanding the puck into the net in the 27th minute and on 38 minutes, Kohen Olischefski would increase the Devils lead to 4-1 as he tapped home Tyler Busch’s pass to the backdoor.
