The Dallas Stars have officially recalled Brett Ritchie and Curtis McKenzie from the Texas Stars.
The Texas Stars were eliminated in the AHL Calder Cup Playoffs after the San Diego Gulls (Anaheim) took out their facepunchers and replaced them with some of the eliminated Ducks, creating a much more efficient team that Texas simply couldn't deal with.

Now they get to be a potential part of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Neither Ritchie nor McKenzie were able to produce in their limited appearances during the regular season, but injuries and forward depth kept them from securing a full time roster spot.
