Benn scored a goal on two shots and logged two hits in Saturday's 2-1 shootout win over the Canadiens.

Stars' Jamie Benn: Nets goal Saturday
Rotowire
Benn scored a goal in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Benn recorded a season-high mark in shots, and that resulted in the veteran winger notching his second strike of the campaign.
