Dallas Stars Daily Links: Back In The Habit

The toughest part about the Global Series (outside of the Stars coming home empty handed points-wise) is that we've had two periods of several days without our team hitting the ice. That all ends tonight as our boys in Victory Green get back out there tonight to begin a flurry of games in the coming weeks.

Speaking of back at it...Mike Heika had a great piece yesterday on fan favorite "puck don't lie" "yeehawkey" connoisseur Matt Duchene. Absolutely worth the read.

On a team that has had some injuries, Duchene has been the rock that DeBoer builds his lineup around. With Joe Pavelski retired and Jason Robertson missing camp, the Duchene line has been huge. With Jamie Benn and Johnston still trying to find their magic again, Duchene has been Mr. Consistent.

Getting chemistry with Seguin and Marchment has been key, and while each has battled their own lineup absences, Duchene finds a way. It's sort of a mashup of the natural skill and hockey smarts that have been brewing for 33 years now.

It's Gameday people!

Here was a fun throwback for a few.

Around The Central

We have a division showdown this evening, as do a few of our fellow foes.

The Winnipeg Jets take on the Colorado Avalanche tonight. The Winnipeg Jets are looking to keep rolling, while the Avs are looking to build off Tuesday's win against the Seattle Kraken. [ LINK ]

Utah Hockey Club also has a divisional game against the suddenly resurgent St. Louis Blues, who have won two in a row. [ LINK ]

The Minnesota Wild take on the San Jose Sharks after getting demolished by the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday. [ LINK ]

And finally, the Nashville Predators get a chance to figure out what we couldn't against the Florida Panthers. [ LINK ]

Finally...

Being that we're back at the AAC, I thought it only fitting to include this little gem of an interview with our very own PA announcer, Jeff K.
