For the second year in a row, three Texas Stars will represent their team at the AHL's All-Star festivities in February. Curtis McKenzie, already named as captain, will be joined by rookie forward Justin Hryckowian and defenseman Lian Bichsel in Palm Desert on February 2 and 3.
It is the first All-Star selection for Bichsel and Hryckowian and would be the first game for all three Stars. McKenzie was named to the 2018 squad but was injured in the final weekend before the game and did not attend.
Last year, Texas sent Mavrik Bourque, Logan Stankoven and Matu011bj Blümel along with head coach Neil Graham to the mid-season exhibition.
