Dallas Stars training camp is now underway and Defending Big D will be bringing you live coverage all weekend long from Fort Worth. We’ve put together a list of essential reads on Twitter for the Stars who will also be out at camp; if there are others you feel should be added, let us know and we’ll take a look.
Today the Stars will have as close to a game as possible in a scrimmage environment; three 18-minute periods with PA announcements from Jeff K, music from Michael Gruber and Team Spezza taking on Team Seguin.
The Stars are going with a rather young defense, with Sergei Gonchar the only true veteran playing on the blue line today. Here are the rosters for the game:
Team Spezza (Green)
Roussel – Spezza – Hemsky
McKenzie – Morin – Ranford
Smith – Faksa – Glennie
Jokipakka – Honka
Oleksiak – Fortunus
Meech
Rynnas
Campbell
Team Seguin (White)
Benn – Seguin – Garbutt
Eaves – Dowling – Cole
Horcoff – Fiddler – Stransky
Klingberg – Nemeth
Gonchar – Connauton
Gaunce
Lehtonen
Lindback
The feed below will auto-update throughout the day, and you don’t have to actually be on Twitter to follow along! Best of both worlds.
Be sure to check back throughout the day for video from the scrimmage, as well as observations and analysis from what transpired on ice.
