Heika: Any good story needs a villain, and Stars fans have battled the same one for nearly a decade

Doubt is the Kryptonite of any fan.

It has permeated the walls of American Airlines Center for darn near a decade in regards to Stars games, and has even batted back the efforts of the new administration, which has this team contending for first place in the Western Conference today.

Yet, Doubt is still there, stuck to the bottom of your Victory Green shoes like a piece of gum.

While you might celebrate the team's 38-20-7 record, Doubt will tell you the Stars are under .500 since Jan. 1.

While you might boast possession numbers that say your team is second best in the NHL at spending time in the offensive zone, Doubt will point out it also ranks 26th in save percentage.
