Instead of simply sticking around in the NHL, he wanted to be one of the Stars’ most important players. The second-year left wing now has nine points in eight games this season after he missed the first six due to a shoulder injury. Perhaps just as important as Robertson’s points on Tuesday was the trust that Stars coach Rick Bowness showed in the 22-year-old. “Coming back now, feeling a little more confident, especially getting pucks out when we’re up by a few goals,” Robertson said. To be honest, I feel bad, we should have buried the first one.”Another milestone for Pavelski: Pavelski played his 1,100th career NHL game on Tuesday night, becoming the fourth active American player to do so.
