Coyotes up first

I should never be surprised when a team is up on the Stars first. That's just what happens. I know they're good when they get behind first in the comeback category, but still...

Anyway, it's rookie Peter Mueller getting his 20th goal of the season off a great pass from Joel Perreault. Phoenix up 1-0 at 9:26.

Niklas Hagman just went off a little gimpy, too. Could be a costly night, although it doesn't look like Hagman is leaving for the locker room.
