Dallas Stars' OT loss to Calgary Flames has fans trolling captain Jason Robertson

Fans on social media mocked forward Jason Robertson for his performance in the Dallas Stars' Thursday night 4-3 (OT) loss to the Calgary Flames at Scotiabank Arena.

Both teams went back and forth until the end of the final buzzer. However, it was Nazem Kadri's goal at the 1:01 mark of OT that sealed the win for the Calgary Flames. The Flames dominated the Stars with 36 shots on goal, compared to the latter's 16.

Jason Robertson, who scored 46 goals last term, has struggled to find his form lately, with the 24-year-old managing to score only one goal in the last five games.

Fans expected Robertson to deliver against the Flames. However, that was not to be. Here's what they said on X, formerly Twitter, about the Dallas Stars' OT loss to Calgary.

One tweeted:

"Robo skating like he’s in a Peanuts’ special"

Here are some more reactions on X:

Jason Robertson has 20 points (six goals and 14 assists) in 21 games for the Stars this season. He's the second-leading scorer for the club after veteran Joe Pavelski.
