Safe to say that this weeks edition of U&D's won't be pretty with the Stars having lost all three of their previous games, but I did manage to find a positive here and there because as bad as three losses in one week is at least it wasn't four losses right?
| Goalies | Trend | Notes |
| Kari Lehtonen |  |
Hard to fault him completely for this past week, but those games against Vancouver and Boston could have gone much better. |
| Andrew Raycroft |  |
Two shots against and two goals against in the game against Boston. Granted it wasn't all on his shoulders, but yikes! |
| Defensemen | ||
|
Trevor Daley |
|
Still good defensively, but his play offensively has dropped off a fair amount. |
|
Mark Fistric |
|
A -2 in his return to the lineup against Philly. |
|
Nicklas Grossman |
|
As always a nice physical presence at the blue line, but teams with speed as always can get around him. |
|
Matt Niskanen |
|
Handled the puck like a live grenade one too many times this week. |
|
Stephane Robidas |
|
A -4 mark against the Bruins puts a damper on what was otherwise a marginal week for him. |
|
Karlis Skrastins |
|
Saved from a 'down' thanks to his goal against Boston, but otherwise wasn't overly effective in his own zone. |

|
Krys Barch |
|
Hate to pick on a guy that got pummeled right into the IR, but it's frustrating to see him lose twice as many fights than he wins. |
|
Adam Burish |
 |
Showed lots of toughness in trying to stay in the Boston game and even scoring while his eye was swelling shut. |
|
Loui Eriksson |
|
A decent offensive week for him as his strong overall play continues. Was the Stars best forward of the week. |
|
Aaron Gagnon |
|
Played the role of a decent - if not young and inexperienced - defensive forward and didn't look overly bad in doing so. |
|
Jamie Langenbrunner |
|
Not that many of us were expecting a flood of goals or anything, but a point at some point this week would have been nice. |
|
Travis Morin |
|
Getting a longer look at the pros due to injuries and not doing too bad as a fill-in. Was actually quite good on face offs against the Flyers. |
|
Brenden Morrow |
|
Did spark the comeback a little against Boston, but his offensive play from a few weeks ago has completely cooled off. |
|
James Neal |
|
Back to being almost completely snake bit. |
|
Steve Ott |
|
The demolishing of Gregory Campbell and 15 minutes worth of PIMs along with one assist he racked up against Boston were the only impressive parts of his game this week |
|
Mike Ribeiro |
|
Same ol, same ol from Ribs... Lots of pretty passing and creating plays - No results. |
|
Brad Richards |
|
We know he's fighting through some nagging injuries so we'll cut him slack as well. Still managed to put up a goal and assist so he's not completely fallen off the board, but the Stars need more. |
|
Brian Sutherby |
|
Please Brian... Stop fighting. Your attempts are more depressing than Barch's |
|
Raymond Sawada |
|
Not to make light of it, but I'm willing to bet he's not a huge fan of the movie "The Blind Side" |
|
Colton Sceviour |
|
Didn't see much ice time, but a solid debut for the kid nonetheless. |
