The Dallas Stars are back in town after a very successful road trip in Canada.
After losing in overtime to the Winnipeg Jets last Sunday afternoon, the Stars rattled off three wins — against the Calgary Flames, the Vancouver Canucks, and the Edmonton Oilers. The team has one of the hottest recent records in the Western Conference and have dug themselves out of the 1-7-1 hole that looked poised to sink the postseason chances of the club before the season had really ever gotten going.
In that time, the Stars have had a number of injuries to contend with.
