Unless you’re in the playoffs, it’s really weird to see a team play each other four straight games in the same season. That’s what we’re about to see, though, as the Dallas Stars and Detroit Red Wings square off starting tonight.
After a back-to-back at home tonight and tomorrow, the Stars will visit the Motor City for two contests later this week. This series couldn’t come at a better time for the Stars, either. Or, at least, it appears that way on paper. With Dallas coming off two very impressive wins over the Columbus Blue Jackets, it would appear four games against the last place team in the division would be just what the doctor ordered.
