Stars' injury update

December 4, 2006 - 10:02 AM ET

The San Jose Sharks roll into Dallas Monday night against a Stars team that is pretty banged up. Defenseman Darryl Sydor is the most recent addition to the list. He suffered an upper body injury in Saturday’s win over Minnesota. Sydor didn’t practice Sunday and his status for tonight is up i...

Stars sign Robidas to extension

December 6, 2006 - 4:39 PM ET

The Stars have signed defenseman Stephane Robidas to a three-year extension worth $4.5 million. Trevor Daley has been taken off IR and Antti Miettinen has been put on IR...

Stars update

December 9, 2006 - 12:11 PM ET

I thought Stu Barnes' post-game quote summed up perfectly how most people react to the Stars these days. “If we win 1-0 we're a great defensive team and if we lose 2-0 we can't score. The bottom line is winning or losing,” said Barnes. The bottom line last night is they lost. You can now...

Hitch returns to Big D

December 11, 2006 - 11:07 PM ET

Ken Hitchcock returns to Dallas Tuesday night and it ought to be fun. The Blue Jackets are playing well and the Stars are expected to get three of their injured players back. Brenden Morrow, Eric Lindros and Antti Miettinen all practiced Monday and are expected to play Tuesday. Mike Modano skate...

Stars' offensive woes continue

December 13, 2006 - 10:28 AM ET

It's easy to look at last night's 3-1 loss to the Blue Jackets and say Marty Turco gave it away by coughing up the puck two times. He did it once when he went out the play the puck and then he did it on the rebound of an Anson Carter shot, both leading to Columbus goals. The second was a huge moment...

Stars can't solve Lundqvist

December 15, 2006 - 10:19 AM ET

You can't fault the Stars' effort last night. They were all over the Rangers, outshooting them 45-20. Execution and finish were different matters. The end result was a 5-2 loss. Give a lot of credit to Henrik Lundqvist, who was brilliant and stopped everything he saw. He was screened on both Dallas...

Road test for the Stars

December 20, 2006 - 9:59 AM ET

Wednesday and Thursday's games against the Ducks and Sharks are going to be good tests for the Stars, who have been mired in a pretty long stretch of mediocre hockey. You can blame it on injuries, a lack of offense, a combination of those two or any other factors, but the team's record over the last...

Stars look to build momentum

December 23, 2006 - 12:09 PM ET

The Dallas responded well by bouncing back from a 4-1 win loss in Anaheim Wednesday with a solid 3-0 win in San Jose the next night. Now they need to build some momentum off that win over the Sharks. That starts tonight when they play the Edmonton Oilers at the American Airlines Center. The Star...

Stars hit the road again

December 26, 2006 - 10:33 AM ET

The Stars are used to a tough schedule and coming out of the Christmas break will be another challenge on that front. "We leave on a flight at 7 o'clock in the morning, practice in Chicago at 10:30 ... and then they throw a 6 o'clock game at us," Stars coach Dave Tippett said of his team's itin...

Morrow out indefinitely after wrist surgery

December 27, 2006 - 2:06 PM ET

Stars captain Brenden Morrow is out indefinitely after successful wrist surgery to repair severed tendons in his right wrist. He underwent surgery at a Chicago hospital Tuesday night and returned to Dallas Wednesday. Morrow was stepped on with a skate in Tuesday's 2-1 loss against the Blackhawks...
