The Dallas Stars are on a roll. A three game road trip sweep, followed by a home victory over the Arizona Coyotes on Tuesday. But that’s ancient history in this oddly scheduled NHL season.
Its back to the grind for the Stars on Saturday night, and its a particularly interesting grind. Bring on the Colorado Avalanche.
Colorado put up a touchdown with a two point conversion the last time out against the Anaheim Ducks. Valeri Nichushkin scored two goals, and the other Avalanche ex-Stars forwards (Andrew Cogliano, Fredrik Olofsson and newly signed Joel Kiviranta) each scored one.
