Denver, CO (My Sportsbook) - Dallas Stars center Jason Arnott left Wednesday's season-opening 1-1 tie against the Colorado Avalanche with a right leg injury. Arnott was injured just over eight minutes into the game when he fell awkwardly to the ice after being pulled down in front of the Avalanche net by Colorado's Vaclav Nedorost. Arnott was unable to put pressure on the leg as he was helped to the locker room. Arnott had three goals and an assist in 10 games with Dallas last season after being traded from New Jersey on March 19. He collected 25 goals and 20 assists in 73 games for the Devils. An arbitrator awarded Arnott a two-year, $7.5 million contract during the offseason.
