It's been a hot minute here since I got a chance to catch up with Texas Stars head coach Neil Graham, having chatted with Everett Sheen for the last weekly. The Stars were out of the country for the past week playing road games in Manitoba and Laval and dropped three of the four.
This weekend will open up the longest home stand of the season for Texas. It may honestly be the longest home stand in team history. Stretching 11 games, the Stars won't play outside Texas again until January 15th, over a month from now.
"It's unique," said Graham when reached by phone Wednesday afternoon.
