After a brief break, the Arizona Coyotes will return to action against a team desparate to make some headway in the Western Conference playoff race: the Dallas Stars.
Every season there seems to be one team that suffers a disastrous set of injuries. This year, that might be the Stars. Dallas has gone without Patrick Sharp, Ales Hemsky, Jason Spezza, and Jiri Hudler for considerable stretches of the season. While Jamie Benn and Tyler Seguin have been healthy thus far, that’s a lot of secondary scoring Dallas is not getting behind their two dynamic forwards.
On top of that, an already underwhelming defense has seen even greater setbacks.
