2012 Player Review: Jamie Benn

Before the season began, one of the most talked about points in the offseason was how Jamie Benn had moved to center. There really wasn't any doubt that he could excel in that playmaker role but just how good was he? There can be only one word to describe how Jamie Benn played this season, incredible. He was without a doubt the Stars most dynamic player on the ice and would have...

Stars momentum drained by its power play

Game 80 of the NHL season came and left Tuesday night with a giant thud for the Dallas Stars. Their dreams of the playoffs for the first time since the glorious spring of 2008 dashed for yet another year. The idea that barring some sort of late season miracle, some of the core vets who were part of that Western Conference Finals team from that year will now play roughly 400 regular...

Dallas Stars Fan Gets Souvenir for Taking Puck in the Face

The Dallas Stars were in Vancouver last evening to take on the Canucks.  Surprisingly, there were a few Stars fans in attendance as well and one fan got more than he bargained for while behind the glass watching Dallas during warm-ups. I don’t know why, but I’m always amazed at how poorly NHL team organizations handle a fan in the stands getting hit with a puck / injured...

Are the Stars a playoff team or not?

The Dallas Stars pulled out a 4-3 shootout win over the Phoenix Coyotes on Tuesday night at the American Airlines Center, a game where the Stars blew a 3-1 lead after two periods, coughing up two unanswered in the third, allowing Phoenix to force overtime and a shootout. And were it not for top goaltender Kari Lehtonen, Dave Tippett's Coyotes likely would have left town with...

Stars have 10 games to prove their worth

The last month has been a wonderful ride for the Dallas Stars and their loyalists who kept the faith. The Stars went on a run where they had 10 victories in 11 games and 21 of a possible 22 points. That run shot them up the standings to 3 in the Western Conference as Pacific Division Leader, but only by an eyelash. There are 10 games to go. As we stand this morning, the Stars still...

Stars riding hot streak down final stretch

Another game on Saturday night at American Airlines Center and another win for the Dallas Stars, 2-0 over the Anaheim Ducks. It has become a familiar tune over these last few weeks as Glen Gulutzan's club has roared to a 10-game point streak and has now won five straight and has a 9-0-1 record over their last 10 games. So it shouldn't surprise anyone who follows the National...

Stars' point streak shows strong start no fluke

The Dallas Stars march on. On Sunday, the Stars beat the Flames 3-2 in a shootout, giving them back-to-back wins to start their three-game swing through Western Canada. Glen Gulutzan's club has now won four straight road games and continues to rack up points using a pretty simple formula. For one, the Stars continue to be carried by their top two lines, but they are also getting...
