It's time. After a fantastic start to the season, the Dallas Stars have recalled their top defensive prospect, Lian Bichsel, ahead of their game tonight against Nashville.
The Swiss defender earned a recall in last year's Western Conference Finals and was this close to playing before Chris Tanev was ruled in for the Game 5 in Dallas. Now, Bichsel seems more likely to play.
Chris Chambers of 100 Degree Hockey wrote an extensive breakdown of Bichsel's season so far the other week and you should give it a review ahead of tonight's contest.
Texas for its part will be fine on defense from a numbers standpoint with Gavin White and Christian Kyrou in reserve.
