Dallas Stars Defy Definition
The Dallas Stars are 12th in the league in total points since the start of February (20 points in 15 games as of today). Notably, they’re behind the Nashville Predators (28 points, first in the league), the Minnesota Wild (22 points, seventh in the league), and now just one point ahead of the Winnipeg Jets. The teams ahead are either the league’s acknowledged elite (Nashville, Tampa Bay, Boston) or in the midst of impressive winning streaks (Philadelphia, Florida). The teams beneath are either fading or have already faded (smell ya later, Chicago), leaving Dallas lumped in with the likes of Pittsburgh, San Jose, and Vegas. That feels - about right, honestly.
