Stars-Red Wings preview: Dallas hopes to feel Jamie Benn's impact as he returns

7:30 p.m. today (FSSW-Plus/1310 AM The Ticket)

Storyline

With most predictions at 95 points for a spot in the playoffs, the Stars need 53 points in the final 40 games. That means they need to start winning two for every one loss. Playing at home against a Detroit team that will likely miss the playoffs means the need to get two points out of this game is very high.

Key matchup

-- Jamie Benn vs. Henrik Zetterberg

Benn returns after missing four games with a foot injury, and the Stars hope to feel his impact immediately.
