Welcome back for a ninth year of Texas Stars hockey. After missing the playoffs for just the second time in eight years, the Stars re-tooled and look to start a Calder Cup campaign with a deep and fast roster filling with exciting prospects and grizzled veterans.
First of all, Texas did make a decision on the backup goalie yesterday afternoon, sending Philippe Desrosiers to the ECHL. Mike McKenna will start tonight, backed up by Landon Bow.
Another decision that Texas will make for tonight will be who is scratched among the eight veterans.
