UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena, Milwaukee, WI
A second stretch of three games in three nights awaits the Texas Stars this weekend--this time in the Midwest. Friday's game is against the Central division-leading Milwaukee Admirals, now coached by former Stars assistant Karl Taylor.
The Admirals banked enough points in the first couple weeks of the season to withstand a recent stretch of .500 play and still maintain their tenuous hold on first place. One interesting statistic suggests that the Ads are due for a regression: 9 of their 13 wins have been by one goal, including a 4-3 OT victory over Texas on October 6.
