What was supposed to be a season-defining home stand for the Dallas Stars has not quite panned out that way. The Stars have lost the first four games with three of them coming in overtime including one shootout.
After losing 2-1 in back-to-back overtime games to the Chicago Blackhawks, Dallas lost a pair of games to the Carolina Hurricanes. Tonight they welcome back a familiar rival. The Nashville Predators visit the American Airlines Center for the first time since the series opener for Dallas.
The Stars won those two games by a combined 10-2 score.
