Throughout much of the 2022-23 regular season, the Dallas Stars had a healthy lead in the Central Division. But thanks to a bit of a tailspin coming out of the All-Star break and some inconsistency thereafter -- coupled with strong play by the Minnesota Wild and Colorado Avalanche -- they enter tonight's game against the Nashville Predators (8:30 p.m. ET, NHL Power Play on ESPN+) in third place (as the Avs have a game in hand).
Can they still take home the regular-season crown for the Central, and a date with a wild-card team in Round 1 of the playoffs?
