The Texas Stars have a surprisingly packed week before the All-Star Break. They'll play four games in six days before earning five consecutive days off. Breaks that long were commonplace in the fall segment of the schedule. However, the spring gets quite a bit tighter. Texas had five breaks of five or more games in the first 38 games of the season. All-Star Week is one of only two in the back half. The other comes in the middle of the season's longest homestand, an 8-game, 20-day stretch starting on Valentine's Day.
With the weekend's games all concluded, Texas sits in playoff position.
