Canucks are in the North West Division not the Pacific.

But good read!

Already fixed it. Accidentally clicked publish before I was ready. Still editing, in fact, to clean up a couple typos and post the lineups.

Rookie forward Alex Chiasson, who had scored six goals in his first six NHL games,

He sounds like he will be a player to watch in the future, to bad he's out for tonight.

Of course he can't sustain those numbers but he could be a solid top six player for the Stars. Not a surprise to Stars fans as he has been considered one of their top prospects all through college years at Boston University (#2 draft pick in 2009 draft.)

Nice read, thanks for preview. Canucks will be surly after their loss in St Louis, Dallas should try and lull them to sleep instead of instigating a battle. I'm sure the players (Canucks) would be happy to avoid a physical game, but if one presents itself it could get them fired up.

I fear that with the way Bobrovsky has been playing and having dumped the veterans on their team, the Stars are already done. Still, they won't be losing out the year, so Vancouver better be ready to play tonight. Clinching would be sweet!

Actually, the Stars can lose another game and still control their destiny if they beat Columbus and Detroit in the final 2 games. Certainly a long shot with the difficult schedule but it is possible, especially if Lehtonen is on his game. Hoping that loss is not tonight!

Good Luck tonight!! Will be a good one.
