There’s only three weeks left in the season as of today, the Stars are still sitting in the third spot in the Western Conference. The ledge is still quite precarious though. Only five points seperate the Stars from the ninth spot and a ticket out of the playoffs. A short losing streak and all that […]

Final SO Dallas 4 – San Jose 3 Let the good times roll! The Stars continued their winning streak with a comeback 4-3 win in a shootout over the San Jose Sharks last night. The Stars are playing with a confidence that I haven’t seen in years and they showed that again last night when […]

Final Dallas 5 – Vancouver 2 Is it too crazy to think that Dallas is possibly the hottest team in the NHL right now?

Final SO Dallas 3 – Calgary 2 The Stars continued to move up the standings with a fantastic 3-2 shootout win over the Calgary Flames last night. For much of the game, Dallas didn’t look so great, but the Stars managed to hang on and then win the game in a shootout. Dallas would have […]

Final Dallas 3 – Edmonton 1 It wasn’t pretty, but the Stars did what they had to do last night. They beat an inferior Edmonton Oilers squad despite not playing their most efficient game.

Compared to how poor Dallas played in January, the Stars played much better hockey this month. They got off to a shaky start, alternating wins and losses before going on a show losing streak. However, Dallas rediscovered its game and fired off five wins in a row near the end of the month. That win […]

Final SO Dallas 3 – Pittsburgh 4 Man, that was a lot of fun wasn’t it? I don’t even mind that the Stars lost. Playoff atmosphere hockey in what had to have been the most exciting game of the year for the Stars. This past week of hockey has been as fun as any this […]

After fielding fielding calls and talking trades and scouting players GM Joe and the Dallas Stars ended the deadline yesterday by doing…nothing. That’s right. Zip, zilch, not one damn move was made by the Stars yesterday despite having attractive trade chips and numerous UFA’s (unrestricted free agents) that would have been solid rentals. Soom of […]

Vancouver Canucks (40-16-6, 86 pts) @ Dallas Stars (32-26-4, 68 pts) 2:00 PM CT, February 26, 2012 American Airlines Center, Dallas, Texas Stars: If Dallas wants to prove that it belongs in the playoffs, the game today provides an opportunity to make a statement.
