During its thirty-year history, hockey Dallas has experienced a lot of success. Victory in the Stanley Cup finals, winning the President’s Cup and two more appearances in the finals. Still, there is much to overcome. Talented American forward Jason Robertson managed it at night, becoming the first in the organization’s history to score 100 points. Even the famous Mike Modano couldn’t do it, for example.
He was only drafted in the 2nd round and has his roots in Southeast Asia, more precisely in the Philippines. His mother was born there, but immigrated to the United States of America as a child. We’re talking about Jason Robertson, who broke the record for the Dallas Stars organization last night. In addition, he became the first player from Texas to score 100 points.
Against Nashville, Robertson entered the statistics four times and completed the hundredth point with a symbolically scored goal on the power play. For example, he was recorded by Jamie Benn, who won the Stars scoring four times. Even the legend of the organization, which is Mike Modano, did not succeed in such an act. He scored a maximum of 93 points.
“It’s a special moment and it means a lot to me” Robertson said after breaking the 100-point mark to NHL.com. Immediately after his goal and 100th point, fans started chanting his nickname ‘Robo.'”I’m glad I have an easy nickname,” he joked after the match.
“It’s crazy, but it’s well deserved,” forward Tyler Seguin said of his teammate’s feat. “He’s so talented that he makes the players next to him better. We’re all excited about him,” added the Canadian forward, who is one of the Dallas Stars’ longest-serving players.
100 points is a new organization record, but is far from being broken in goals or assists. He currently has 43 goals and the record is held by Mike Modano with 50 goals, and Brad Richards reigns in assists with 67. Robertson would have to add another 10 of those in the last nine games to celebrate another milestone.
