Stars' Captain Benn Ejected Early in Game 3
Ejection Could Prove Costly for Dallas
Game 3 Update
4:14 PM on May 24, 2023 CDT
Dallas Stars captain Jamie Benn was ejected just 1:53 into Game 3 of the Western Conference Final against the Vegas Golden Knights on Wednesday, May 24, 2023.
The ejection occurred after Benn delivered a cross-check to the neck of Vegas forward Mark Stone. The hit drew an immediate penalty and Benn was given a match penalty for slashing.
The Stars are now without their captain for the remainder of Game 3 and could be without him for more than that if the NHL decides to suspend him.
Conclusion
Benn's absence is a major blow to the Stars, who are already facing a 2-0 deficit in the series. The Stars will need to find a way to win Game 3 without their captain if they want to keep their postseason alive.
