The Dallas Stars welcomed the Arizona Coyotes into the American Airlines Center for the second time this season, looking to extend the club’s win streak to five games. The Stars were coming into the tilt flying high after arguably the biggest win of the season on Saturday night against the Central-leading Nashville Predators, meaning that this matchup was perfect for the so-called trap game.
The Coyotes came into the evening riding a 6-2-2 run in their last 10 games, and looking to rebound after a 3-2 overtime loss to the San Jose Sharks during the weekend.
