Irbe made 24 saves for his second shutout of the season and Carolina's first in the Raleigh Entertainment and Sports Arena. I'm really pleased with how the guys competed. It wasn't just me. The franchise's last shutout against the Stars was when the Hartford Whalers topped the Minnesota North Stars, 5-0, on January 23, 1988. The Stars have been outscored 8-5 over the last four games, were shut out for the third time this season and are last in the Pacific Division.
