Storyline
After losing three in a row to top Western Conference teams, the Stars head East and see if they can get their game together. They will need the full roster to step up, as Jason Dickinson has been called up from the minors and might sub in for Antoine Roussel (possibly out with an elbow injury) and Julius Honka is expected to step in for Greg Pateryn (possibly out with a thigh contusion). Kari Lehtonen is expected to start in goal.
