This will be the second and final meeting of the season between the two teams. In October, the Stars edged the Red Wings 4-2 at home.
The Red Wings are coming off of one of their best wins of the season in Chicago. Petr Mrazek posted a shutout and Tyler Bertuzzi recorded his first career NHL goal.
Their opponents have found their stride midseason winning five of their last seven games and have moved right back into the thick of the Western Conference playoff race.
Four players have been having terrific seasons on the Stars roster.
