The Stars are playing at home tonight. We’ll need another tray of appetizers.

Happy game day, DBD’ers! Let’s look at what’s up with our Dallas Stars while we wait for the match with the Maple Leafs:

An elite goalie gives the rest of team the space to find their game. Mike Heika takes a look at how an adorable sea creature has become the Stars’ backbone.

#Death Notes

After Tuesday’s Frozen Frenzy, only two, non-Central teams played the Wednesday back-to-back – which just means there are plenty of divisional games on for tonight:

  • Winnipeg Jets @ Detroit Red Wings, 6 PM CT
  • Colorado Avalanche @ Pittsburgh Penguins, 6 PM CT
  • Minnesota Wild @ Philadelphia Flyers, 6:30 PM CT
  • St. Louis Blues @ Calgary Flames, 8 PM CT

Finally

If you’re in the Metroplex, you may have just found your new Saturday-morning thing. Have fun.
