Do Hips Lie: What the Heck is FAI and What Does It Have To Do With the Dallas Stars?

A deeper look at the types of hip problems the Stars are tackling with arthroscopic surgery to several major players.

Valeri Nichushkin. Ales Hemsky. Trevor Daley. Both John Klingberg and Jamie Benn got the extra fun of having not just one but both hips done in relatively short order.

What the heck is going on with the Stars hips that they need so much maintenance all of a sudden?
